Answer:

48 yards

Explanation:

Hey there!

To find the answer, we must first find how much yards of yarn she needs for 1 quilt

we do, 40/10 which is 4

Meaning, she needs 4 yards of yarn to make 1 quilt

Now we multiply 4 by 12 since we are making 12 quilts

4 x 12 = 48

So, Natalie needs 48 yards of yarn to make 12 quilts
