Question

Brianna makes quilts and sells them online. She can make 7 quilts with 28 yards of material. How many yards of material would be required to make 12 quilts?

Answer 1

48.

Explanation:

Since Brianna is using 28 yards of material to make 7 quilts, this would give us the expression 28 yards ÷ 7 quilts. The answer to this is 4. She uses 4 yards of material to make each quilt. Now, we just have to find 12 x 4. This gives us 48.
