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

the length of a pool 2 km long is represented on a map with a length of 20cm. what is the map scale used?​
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The scale used is 1: 10,000 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the length of a pool 2 km long is represented on a map with a length of 20cm, to determine what is the map scale used the following calculation must be performed:

2 km = 2,000 m

1m = 100cm

2,000 x 100 = 200,000

20: 200,000

10: 100,000

1: 10,000

Thus, the scale used is 1: 10,000 cm.
