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?
