Question

Mimi bought some fabric for a sewing project. The fabric cost $15.40 per meter. She bought 250 centimeters of fabric.

How much did Mimi pay for the fabric?

Answer 1

$38.50

Explanation:

so there are a hundred centimetres in a meter so u have to divide the 250 by 100

250 / 100 = 2.5 meters

and its 15.40 for 1 meter and she bought 2.5 so multiply those

15.40 * 2.5 = 38.50

she paid $38.50 for 2.5 meters of fabric
