Oh. I thought you meant 3-6, not questions 3 through 6. Sorry :(
The answer is 9
12 ounces x
--------------- = ----------------
10 pounds of soil 120 pounds of soil
Set the equation up as a proportion and solve for x:
10x = 1440
---- -----
10 10
x = 144 ounces
The question asks for the answer in pounds, and 16 ounces = 1 pound.
144/16 = 9
I drew these, as I just did these in math not too long ago. When I shaded it, it was in all four quadrants.
