Question

You are making scarves for presents. Each scarf needs 3/4 yd of fabric. How many yards of fabric do you need for 6 scarves?

Answer 1

You would need 4.5 yards of fabric to make 6 scarves. This is because you have to convert 3/4 into an equivalent decimal which would be 0.75, then multiply that by 6 to get how much fabric you need.
