Answer:
2/5 yards of fabric
Step-by-step explanation:
A total of 2 yards of fabric is used to make 5 identical pillows. How much fabric is used for each pillow?
5 identical pillows = 2 yards of fabric
1 pillow = x yards
Cross Multiply
x yards × 5 pillows = 2 yards × 1 pillow
x yards = 2 yards × 1 pillow/5 pillows
x yards = 2/5 yards of fabric
Therefore, 2/5 yards of fabric was used for 1 pillow
