Martin uses 3/5 yard of Travis to make 1 backpack how many backpacks can Martin make if he has a total of 9 yards of fabric
To find out how many backpacks Martin can make, we need to determine how many 3/5 yard sections are in 9 yards of fabric.
We can start by multiplying 3/5 by the number of backpacks Martin can make with 9 yards of fabric to find out how much fabric is needed for that number of backpacks.
(3/5) * x = 9
To solve for x, we can cross multiply:
3 * x = 9 * 5
3 * x = 45
Now, divide both sides by 3:
x = 45 / 3
x = 15
Therefore, Martin can make 15 backpacks with 9 yards of fabric.
