Jesse uses 3/4 yards of fabric to make a pillow. He wants to make 10 pillows to sell at the craft fair. How many yards of fabric does Jesse need?

Respuesta :

Answer:

He needs 7.5 yards  of fabric to sell at the craft fair

Step-by-step explanation:

This is unitary method and we can calculate the value of any number of items if we are given one.

1 pillow= 3/4 yards

10 pillows= 3/4 *10

10 pillows= 15/2

10 pillows=  7.5 yards

or another way is convert 3/4 directly into decimal

3/4= 0.75

1 pillow= 0.75 yards

10 pillows= 0.75 *10

10 pillows=  7.5 yards

He needs 7.5 yards  of fabric to sell at the craft fair
