PLEASE EXPLAIN
WRONG QUESTION, QUESTION I MEANT TO COPY AND PASTE:
Becky is buying fabric to make new pillows for her couch. She spends $71.50 on striped fabric and $52.25 on checkered fabric. If both fabrics cost $5.50 per yard, how many total yards of fabric does she buy?
Write your answer as a whole number or decimal.
What don't you get? Just write down the facts!
71.50/5.50 = 13 yds striped
52.25/5.50 = 9.5 yds checked
so she got 13 + 9.5 = 22.5 yards of fabric
