Part B. I need 6 skeins of yarn to make an afghan. How much will the yarn cost

Answer 1

Answer: Part A = $2.50, Part B. $15.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A. Since 2 skeins of yarn cost 5 dollars, that means each skein must cost 5/2 dollars = $2.50

Part B. Since we know each skein costs $2.50, 6 skeins of yarn would cost 2.5*6 = $15.00

Answer 2

• 2 skeins cost 5$
• 1 skein costs=5/2=2.5$

#2

No of skeins=6

• Cost=6(2.5)=15$
