Question

Christine is making fleece blankets. 6 yards of fleece will make 2 blankets. How many blankets can she make with 9 yards of fleece?

Yards of Fleece 6 9
Number of Blankets 2

Answer 1

Christine can make 3 blankets with 9 yards of fleece.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many blankets Christine can make with 9 yards of fleece, we can set up a proportion using the information given. We know that 6 yards of fleece make 2 blankets. So, we can write the proportion: 6 yards / 2 blankets = 9 yards / x blankets. Now we can cross multiply and solve for x: 6 * x = 9 * 2.

Simplifying, we get 6x = 18. Dividing both sides by 6, we find that x = 3. Therefore, Christine can make 3 blankets with 9 yards of fleece.

Answer 2

3 blankets.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you do 6/2 and you get 3 yards of fleece for 1 blanket. 9/3 is 3 so 3 times 1 is 3.

So there are 3 blankets for 9 yards of fleece.

Have a lovely day!
