1. You have the following information:
<span>
 - Maria has 8 1/2 quarts of soil.
 - Each pot requires 3/4 quart of soil.
</span>
 2. Keeping this on mind, you can convert the mixed number 8 1/2 and the fracion 3/4 to decimals, as below: 

 8 1/2=8.5 quarts
 3/4=0.75 quarts

 3. Therefore, you have:

 1 pot-----0.75 quarts
       x-----8.5 quarts

 x=(8.5x1)/0.75
 x=11 pots
<span>
 For how many pots does Maria have enough soil?
</span>
 The answer is: 11 pots

Will says that in the number 8,184​, one 8 is 10 times as great as the other 8. Is he ​correct? Explain why or why not.
Vinil7 [7]
No he is not correct .
Break apart the number 8,184
You will get
8000 + 100 + 80 + 4

The numbers we are comparing are 8000 and 80

80 x 10 = 800

The number we are looking for is 8000

This makes the claim that one 8 is 10 times greater false as it is in fact 100 times as great.
