1. Divide the amount needed by the weight:

0.5 milligram / 50 pounds = 0.01 milligram per pound.

2. m = 0.01w

3. m = 0.01(10)

4 m = 0.01 x 10

0.1 milligrams

The error was step 1.

Using the quote, "Those of us on the margins wonder if our stories matter" what is the significance of the quoted text?
Andreyy89

The significance of the quoted text is to illustrate the less privileged in an overwhelmingly crowded and disordered chronological reality.

<h3>What is a quote?</h3>

Quote means to cite something as a form of proof. It has several other senses as a verb and a noun. It should be noted that to quote something or someone is to repeat the exact words they said or to recite the exact words written in a book.

Great speakers often quote other inspiring people when making speeches. When you quote, you include the words and ideas of others in your text exactly as they have expressed them.

You signal this inclusion by placing quotation marks (“ ”) around the source author's words and providing an in-text citation after the quotation.

In this case, the significance of the quoted text is to illustrate the less privileged in an overwhelmingly crowded and disordered chronological reality. A quotation is the repetition of a sentence, phrase, or passage from speech or text that someone has said or written.
