Since one week is 7 days.

616 days is 616/7=<<616/7=88>>88 weeks.

Since the python eats 1 alligator per week, in 88 weeks it can eat 88/1=<<88/1=88>>88 alligators.

A Burmese python that was 1.4 meters long swallowed a 50-centimeter alligator.  After one week, the alligator was completely digested.  If this snake continues to eat 50-centimeter-long alligators at a constant rate of one alligator per week, what is the maximum number of alligators that the snake can eat in 616 days?
