Answer 1

Answer:

D. 3 pillows​

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

For one pillow, 8/5 yards of fabric are needed.

Ravens has 6 yards. How many pillows can he make?

1 pillow - 8/5 yards

x pillows - 6 yards

Applying cross multiplication

(8/5)x = 6

8x = 6*5

8x = 30

x = 30/8

x = 3,...

We cannot make a decimal part of a pillow, so we take the integer value.

He can make 3 pillows
