Question

Cara buys 2.5 yards of fabric for a dress that she is making. If the fabric costs $4.50 per yard, what does she pay?

Answer 1

4.50 × 2 = 9.00

4.50 ÷ 2 = 2.25

9.00 + 2.25 = 11.25

$11.25

Answer 2

Cara will pay $11.25*

It is $9 for two yards

Half of $4.50 is $2.20

Since she is buying 2.5 yards, you add the $2.20 to the $9 which will give you $11.25

*Assuming there is no tax as the question did not say.

Hope this helps! :)
