Question

What is the cost for 23 yards of cloth at 85.62 per yard

Answer 1

1,969.26

Explanation:

If a yard costs 85.62, we can present this as;

y = 85.62

Therefore, to find the cost of 23 yards, we can represent the above equation as;

23y = x

since we already know the value of y, we can say that

x = 23(85.62)

so,

x = 1,969.26
