A fine fabric was selling for $10.50 per half yard. Joni bought 2 1/3 yards. How much did he spend? Brainliest for correct answer. (ANSWER ISN'T 45.5)

Answer 1

Answer:

45.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would find 1/3 third of 10.50 and it is 3.5, you would then do 10.50 x 4 since it said 10.50 per half a yard, so you would do times 4 and you would get 42, you would then add 42 + 3.5 which equals 45.5.

$49 is spended by him.

solution given:

rate=for $10.50 per half yard=$10.50/0.5=$21 per yard

area=2 1/3=7/3yards

now

total cost =rate× area =$21×7/3=$49
