Your Assignment Mr. Townsend needs to make 13 pairs of butterfly wings for costumes for a play. Each pair of wings is made with 3/4 yard of fabric. The fabric costs $8 per yard. You'll apply properties of multiplication in the following steps to find the total cost of the fabric.

Answer 1

SOLUTION

n = 13 ,

Each pair of wings is made with 3/4 yard of fabric = 3/4 x 13 = (39/ 4) yards

The fabric costs $8 per yard = (39 / 4) x 8 = 39 x 2 = $ 78
