Here's a completion of the passage in the question, and the likely answer:
(I believe you are asked to complete the passage, and find the missing words).
Fortunately, in that moment of “desperate extremity,” the Powhatans brought food and rescued the starving strangers. A year later, several hundred more settlers arrived, and again they quickly ran out of provisions. They were forced to eat “dogs, cats, rats, and mice,” even “CORPSES” dug from graves. “Some have licked up the blood which hathfallen from their weak fellows,” a survivor reported. “One member of our colony murdered his wife, ripped the child out of her womb and threw it into the river, and after chopped the mother in pieces and salted her for his food, the same not being discovered before he had eaten part thereof.” “So great was our famine,” John Smith stated, “that a savage we slew and buried, the poorer sort took him up again and ate him; and so did diverse one another boiled and stewed with roots and herbs.”
Since you already changed the fractions into decimals, it will be easier to change it into fraction with the denominator of 100 or 1000.
All you have to do is move the decimals to the right in order to find the denominator.
14a) 50/100 OR 51/100 the bigger number would be 51/100 or 0.51
14b) 80/100 or 85/100 the bigger is 85/100 or 0.85
14c) 750/1000 or 734/1000 the bigger number is 750/1000 or 3/4.
Hope this helps.
In this chapter, Scout begins to notice that other children in her class have traits and behaviors that she does not understand. Specifically, she becomes angry and judgmental when Walter Cunningham is at her house for dinner, and begins to pour syrup on all of his food. Scout is unaware of Walter's home life, and merely sees this action as him choosing not to act in a way that she believes is right. Atticus and Calpurnia, knowing that Walter does not know any better, remind her that Walter, has had a different upbringing than she has, and has not had many of the opportunities that she has had. When Atticus has this discussion with Scout, he wants her to understand that although people may have their differences, it is important to try and see things from their points of view. This quote is one of the earliest examples of the recurring theme of Scout learning about empathy throughout the novel.
