Amelia uses
66
pieces of fabric per square foot to make a blanket.How many pieces of fabric will she need to make a blanket that is
720
720
square inches?
To find the number of pieces of fabric Amelia will need to make a blanket that is 720 square inches, we need to convert the area from square inches to square feet.
To do this, we divide the area in square inches by the conversion factor of 144 (since there are 144 square inches in 1 square foot).
So, the area in square feet is calculated as follows:
720 square inches ÷ 144 = 5 square feet
Now that we have the area in square feet, we can find the total number of pieces of fabric needed by multiplying the area in square feet by the number of pieces of fabric per square foot:
5 square feet × 66 pieces per square foot = 330 pieces of fabric
Therefore, Amelia will need 330 pieces of fabric to make a blanket that is 720 square inches.
