Question

A braid was bought to put around a blanket that measures 23 inches by 24 inches. At $0.60 per yard how much was paid for the braid if it can only be purchased by the full yard?

Answer 1

To do this you need 94 inches of braid. 

94 inches =  ? yards

1 inch = 0.0277778 yard

94 × 0.0277778 =  2.6111132.

Since you can only pay for a full yard you would buy 3 yards which would cost:- 

$0.60 × 3 = $1.80.

So for this you would need 3 yards which would cost $1.80. 

Hope I helped:P
