Question

Penny uses 3/4 yard fabric for each pillow she makes. How many pillows can she make using 6 yards

Answer 1

Do 6/(3/4) equal 24/3(from multiplying the 6 and the 4), to get the answer: 8

Answer 2

Penny would make 8 pillows with 6 yards of fabric. This is because 3/4 equals 6, and when you divide 6 by .75 (or 3/4), you should get 8.
