Why do yo uwant just the answer?

 

The dog ways 4 parts of the total and the cat weighs 1 part of the total. Altogether there are 5 parts.

and the total is 40 pounds.

 

You can work out how much each part is

and then you can work out how much the dog weighs.

 

Please no one butt in and give the final answer!

c= cat weight       then   4c = dog weight

 

the two weights  total  40     soooo    c + 4c = 40         5c= 40      

         now you can find c= cat weight and calculate 4c=dog weight
