Question

Mrs Larsen made 12 pillows from 16 yards of the same fabric. How much fabric was used to make each pillow? between what two whole numbers does your answer lie? (divide fractions)

Answer 1

Yards per pillow.....yds/pillow....make sure u put the yds over the pillows when dividing

16/12 = 1.33 (or 1 1/3) yds per pillow....this lies between 1 and 2 yds
