Question

There are 12 costumes for a play that
need 56 yards of blue fabric and 27
yards of red fabric. How many yards of
each fabric does each costume get?

Answer 1

Each costume gets 4.67 yards of blue fabric and 2.25 yards of red fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total costumes = 12

Blue fabric = 56 yards

Red fabric = 27 yards

One costume contains blue fabric;

1 Costume = $\frac{Total\ fabric}{No.\ of\ costumes}$

1 costume = $\frac{56}{12} = 4.67\ yards$

One costume contains red fabric;

1 costume = $\frac{27}{12}=2.25\ yards$

Each costume gets 4.67 yards of blue fabric and 2.25 yards of red fabric.
