Question

Sarah needs 10 feet of fabric for a project she is working on, but the store only sells the fabric in meters. One meter of fabric costs $1.50. How much will the fabric cost?

[1 ft = 0.305 m]

Answer 1

$4.58

Explanation:

Lets convert 10 feet to meters.

1 ft = 0.305m

10ft = 0.305 * 10

10ft = 3.05m

Now we will work out the cost of the fabric.

Given 1m = $1.50

3.05m = 3.05 * $1.50 = $4.58 (nearest cent)
