Question

Mrs. Start's class paid $5.60 for 4/5 yd of lace for an art project. Later, the class decided to buy another 7 3/4 yd of the same lace to make costumes for the school musical. How much money do they need for this second purchase?

Answer 1

here this is all i could find

Answer 2

4/5 is the same as 8/10 or .8
5.60 / .8 = 7
So it is $7 per yard
7 3/4 x $7 = 7.75 x $7 = $54.25
