Answer:
Explanation:
f the dressmaker can make 7 shirts from 10 yards of cloth, we can find out how much cloth is needed for each shirt by dividing the total yards of cloth by the number of shirts.
Cloth needed per shirt = 10 yards / 7 shirts = 1.43 yards (rounded to two decimal places)
To determine how many yards of cloth Mr. Salifu needs for 19 shirts, we can multiply the cloth needed per shirt by the number of shirts.
Cloth needed for 19 shirts = 1.43 yards/shirt * 19 shirts = 27.17 yards (rounded to two decimal places)
Therefore, Mr. Salifu needs approximately 27.17 yards of cloth to make 19 shirts of the same size as the original 7 shirts.
