Luz wants to make a dress that would cost $125 if she bought it. She
will need 8 yards of fabric at $11.25 per yard, and a pattern at $2.75.
How much will she save by making the dress?
a. $92.75
b. $32.25
c. $35
d. $122.25
First, we need to calculate the cost of the fabric and pattern:
8 yards of fabric at $11.25 per yard = $90
Pattern = $2.75
So the total cost of materials is $92.75.
To find out how much she will save by making the dress, we subtract the total cost from the cost of buying the dress:
$125 - $92.75 = $32.25
Therefore, she will save $32.25 by making the dress.
The answer is b. $32.25.
