Julia tiene diez animalitos en casa, entre perros y gatos. Ha comprado 56 nutritivas galletitas para mascotas y las reparte dándole seis galletas a cada uno de sus perros y cinco a cada uno de sus gatos. ¿Cuántos perros y gatos tiene Julia?
Fifty-six biscuits are to be fed to ten pets; each pet is either a cat or a dog. Each dog is to get six biscuits, and each cat is to get five. How many dogs and how many cats are there?
Hint: First feed five biscuits to each of ten pets; this leaves six biscuits. Now, the cats have already had their portion! Therefore, the six remaining biscuits are for the dogs, and since each dog is to get one more biscuit, there must be ____ dogs, and thus ____ cats.
