The amount of fabric that Chloe cut is correct.

Proportions

Given that the directions on a sewing pattern say to cut an extra 15% of fabric to account for an error, and Chloe needs a 0.75 yard of fabric to make a skirt, so she cuts 0.1125 yard, to determine if Chloe cut the correct amount of fabric the following calculation must be made:

  • 0.75 x 1.15 = X
  • 0.8625 = X
  • 0.8625 - 0.1125 = 0.75

Therefore, the amount of fabric that Chloe cut is correct.
