To solve this problem, we need to find the inequality that describes the situation and then solve it.<br /><br />Given information:<br />- Scarlett divided the bag of soil evenly into 5 clay pots.<br />- She put more than 6 quarts of soil into each pot.<br /><br />Let x represent the total amount of soil in the bag.<br /><br />The inequality that describes the problem is:<br />$\frac{x}{5} > 6$<br /><br />To solve the inequality, we need to isolate x:<br />$\frac{x}{5} > 6$<br />$x > 30$<br /><br />Therefore, the solution to the inequality is:<br />There were more than 30 quarts of soil in the bag.
