Ratios and proportions

Given the following parameters;

A baby outfit uses 4/9 square yards of fabric for the hat and 1/9 square yards of fabric for the bib.

• The total fabric used by a baby = 4/9 + 1/9
• The total fabric used by a baby = 5/9 square yards

A tailor has 4 4/9 square yards of fabric, then the total outfit the tailor can make is expressed as:

total outfit = 40/9 ÷ 5/9

total outfit = 40/5

total outfit = 8 outfits

Hence the tailor can make 8 outfits with 4 4/9 square yards of fabric
