Answer:
12 purple rectangles
Step-by-step explanation:
Olivia is making scarves. Each scarf will have 7 rectangles, and 6/7 of the rectangles will be purple.
Number of purple rectangles in 1 scarf is calculated as =
7 × 6/7 = 6 rectangles per scarf
How many purple rectangles does she need for 2 scarves?
Therefore, If:
1 scarf = 6 purple rectangles
2 scarves = x purple rectangles
Cross Multiply
x = 2 × 6 purple rectangles
x = 12 purple rectangles
