Question

Tanya wants to sew her own jean jacket. She found a sewing pattern for her size and realized she

needs 4 yards of fabric. She goes to the store and finds the denim fabric she likes, which is priced
at $7.50 per yard. She also needs to buy buttons to put on the jean jacket. She finds a pack of
buttons priced at $6.99. How much will Tanya spend at the store on her fabric and buttons?

Answer 1

$36.99

Explanation:

Fabrics per yard = $7.50

Pack of buttons = $6.99

Fabrics needed = 4 yards

How much will Tanya spend at the store on her fabric and buttons?

Total cost of fabric and button = cost of 4 yards of fabric + pack of buttons

= 4(7.50) + 6.99

= 30 + 6.99

= 36.99

Total cost of fabric and button = $36.99
