Question

Explain how you would use the diagram to find the number of yards of white fabric used when 64 yards of blue fabric are used.

Answer 1

104

Explanation:

The blue fabric sequence is multiplication of eight

So,64 /8 = 8

white fabric is ( n of blue fabric /8) x 5 + n of blue fabric= n of white fabric

=(64/8) x 5 + 64

=104

Hope you understand...

Answer 2

You would use it by adding 5 for every time you added 8 or just multiply 13 by the number of times you added 8. Either way works.
