Question

Molly is making scarves. She bought 3 2/3 yards of fabric. Her total cost was $44. What was the cost per yard?

Answer 1

$ 12

Explanation:

To simply know the method or requirement of a problem like that, just look at the units required (price/yard).

This means that there is a division needed. Divide the price by yards.

So

Price/Yards = 44 ÷ (3⅔) = 12 Dollars per Yard.
