Ms.Smith is making costumes for the school play. Each costume requires 0.75 yard of fabric. How many costumes can Ms Smith make?
How much fabric does she have?
sorry.
She bought 6 yards of fabric.
6/0.75 = 8 costumes
To find out how many costumes Ms. Smith can make, we need to know the total amount of fabric she has. Once we have that information, we can divide it by the amount of fabric required for each costume.
Let's assume Ms. Smith has "x" yards of fabric. Each costume requires 0.75 yard of fabric. So, to get the number of costumes, we can divide the total fabric by the fabric required for each costume:
Number of costumes = Total fabric / Fabric required per costume
In this case, it would be:
Number of costumes = x yards / 0.75 yard
Since we don't know how much fabric Ms. Smith has, we cannot determine the exact number of costumes she can make.
