Carlos has some gold quarters. If he spends them in a store, they are worth the regular amount. If he melts them down, he can get $100 per ounce. Each quarter weighs 1/5 of an ounce. How many times more money would he get from melting them down instead of spending them in a store? Give me reasons, before answering the question

If he melts them down, five quarters equals $100 because 1 / (1 / 5) = 5. If he spends those five quarters they are worth $1.25 because 5 x .25 = 1.25. They are worth 80 times more melted down because 100 / 1.25 = 80. So the final answer is 80.
