Sadie needs 3.1 yards to make one costume for each choir member in the play. How much fabric will she need if she has to make 5 costumes?
A.
10.5 yards
B.
18.6 yards
C.
15.5 yards
D.
16.5 yards
To find the total amount of fabric Sadie will need, we need to multiply the amount of fabric needed for one costume by the number of costumes she needs to make.
Fabric needed for one costume: 3.1 yards
Number of costumes: 5
3.1 yards * 5 costumes = 15.5 yards
Therefore, Sadie will need 15.5 yards of fabric.
The correct answer is C. 15.5 yards.
