4 pounds for $8 ⇒ 1 pound for $8/4 = $2

<u>Rye flour</u>

5 pounds for $20 ⇒ 1 pound for $20/5 = $4

<u>Equation for total:</u>

A dress needs 3 1/4 yards of fabric to make. If the matching jacket requires 5/6 less yards of fabric. How much fabric is needed

oksian1 [2.3K]

Fabric needs to make a dress = 3 1/4
fabric needs to make jacket= 3 1/4 - 5/6
= 29/12 or 2 5/12
Hence total fabric needed for both pieces is
= 3 1/4 + 2 5/12
= 68/12 or 5 8/12 or 5 2/3 yards
