Question

Ivan has 15 yd of green felt and 12 yd of blue felt to make 3 quilt if I have I even uses the same total numbers of each of yd for each quilt how many yd does she need To use for each quote

Answer 1

9 yards of each quilt.

Explanation:

Let the length of each quilt be 'x'.

Given:

Length of green felt = 15 yards

Length of blue felt = 12 yards

Total number of quilts = 3

Total length of all the quilts in terms of 'x' is given as:

`Total\ length=x+x+x=3x ----(1)`

Total length is also equal to the sum of the lengths of green and blue felts. So,

`Total\ length=15+12=27--- (2)`

Now, equating equations (1) and (2), we get:

`3x=27\\\\x=(27)/(3)\\\\x=9`

Therefore, the length of each quilt is 9 yards.
