Question

3.)Nora and Ryan are making stuffed animals for a toy drive. The table shows the fabric purchases they made. Who purchased the more expensive fabric? Explain your reasoning.

Nora - 2/3 purchased, paid 4$
Ryan - 0.8 purchased, paid 6$

Answer 1

Converting 0.8 to a fraction:
0.8 = 8/10 = 4/5

Nora's fabric: 4 / (2/3)
= $6 per unit

Ryan's fabric: 6 / (4/5)
= $7.5 per unit

Thus, Ryan purchased the more expensive fabric.
