Question

Leona is making aprons to sell at a craft fair. For every 2 aprons, she needs 4 and half yards of ribbon for the trim. How many yards of ribbon are needed to make 9 aprons?

Answer 1

Answer:

20 1/4 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

   2 aprons = 4 1/2 yd

⇒   1 apron = 4 1/2 ÷ 2 = 2 1/4 yd

⇒ 9 aprons = 2 1/4 x 9 = 20 1/4 yd
