He would only need 3 because
Knitted Caps=2
so that means
4(2) Knitted caps=8
3(2) knitted caps = 6
Here is you're answer:
In order to cross multiply you have to multiply the numerator and denominator of the first fraction by the bottom number of the second fraction and see if the equation is still true:
Therefore you're answer is "3 × 1 = 5 × 10."
Hope this helps!
As a fraction, it would be 5 6/10. Then you multiply the denominator by the whole number 5x10 and add the numerator. So,
10X5+6=56
56/10
divide by 2
28/5 is the simplified version
