Ten skeins of yarn will make 4 scarves. how many scarves can be made with 25 skeins of yarn?
ladessa [460]
If 10 skeins makes 4 scarves than if you multiply the skeins by 2 (20 skeins) it would make 8 scarves. There for dividing the skeins by 2 (5 skeins) it would make 2 scarves. So adding 20 skeins and 5 skeins you would get 10 scarves total
