Solve this multi step problem. A household uses 1/44 of a 15 pound bag of rice every 3 weeks. What is the change in the number of pounds of rice in the bag of rice after 8 weeks?

Answer 1

The household uses 1/44 * 15 = <<1/44*15=0.341>>0.341 pounds of rice every 3 weeks.
After 8 weeks, the household would use 0.341 * 8/3 = <<0.341*8/3=0.9093333333333334>>0.909 pounds of rice.
The change in the number of pounds of rice in the bag of rice after 8 weeks is 15 - 0.909 = <<15-0.909=14.091>>14.091 pounds. Answer: \boxed{14.091}.
