What is the answer? I need help please

Answer 1

Answer:

150 pillows

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

The amount of Lace Trim in stock is 135 yd

For making a single pillow $\frac{9}{10}$ yd lace trim is needed

Hence, the number of pillows that can be made by 135 yd lace trim is

(135÷$\frac{9}{10}$)

=>150 pillows

Again,

The amount of Corduroy Fabric in stock is 168 yd

For making a single pillow $\frac{7}{18}$ yd corduroy fabric is needed

Hence, the number of pillows that can be made by 168 yd corduroy fabric is

(168÷$\frac{7}{8}$)

=>192 pillows

Again,

The amount of Cotton Filling in stock is 104 lb

For making a single pillow $\frac{2}{3}$ lb cotton filling is needed

Hence, the number of pillows that can be made by 104 lb cotton filling is

(104÷$\frac{2}{3}$)

=>156 pillows

Now,

Since, we have to use all three materials for manufacturing a pillow, we can make highest 150 pillows by the amount of materials in stock. We can't make more than 150 pillows because lace trim will run out after using in in 150 pillows.
