Final answer:
Kennedy can make 12 headbands from 8 yards of red fabric, using 2/3 of a yard for each headband. The answer is calculated by finding the number of headbands per yard (1.5) and multiplying by the total yards available (8).
Step-by-step explanation:
If each headband takes 2/3 of a yard of fabric, we can calculate the number of headbands Kennedy can make from 8 yards of red fabric by dividing the total yards of fabric by the amount needed for one headband.
Step 1: Calculate the number of headbands that can be made from one yard of fabric. This is done by calculating the reciprocal of 2/3, which is 3/2 or 1.5 headbands per yard.
Step 2: Multiply the number of headbands per yard by the total yards of fabric Kennedy has. So, 1.5 headbands per yard multiplied by 8 yards equals 12 headbands.
Therefore, Kennedy can make 12 headbands from 8 yards of red fabric. The correct answer is D) 12.
