Answer: 8.8
Explanation:
Total amount spent on fabric= $66
Cost per yard of the fabric= $7.50
To know the amount of yards that Mia buys, we divide the total amount Mia spent on fabric by the cost per yard of the fabric. This will be:
$66/$7.50 = 8.8
Mia bought 8.8 yards of fabric.
To know my answer is correct and reasonable, I will multiply 8.8 by 7.5 to know if I'll get the total amount Mia spent on the fabric.
$8.8 × 7.5= $66
