Kenny is making a small quilt for his new niece. His pattern calls for 4.5 yards of fabric, and he picks out a plaid fabric that costs $3.90 per yard. How much money does Kenny spend on the fabric?

Respuesta :

Answer:

He spends $17.55 on the new fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply 3.9 (cost of fabric per yard) by 4 (number of yards) to get 15.6. Then divide 3.9 by 2 (since we need half a yard) to get 1.95. Lastly add 15.6 plus 1.95 to get your answer, $17.55.

Answer:

Kenny spent $17.55 on the fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it costs $3.90 per yard, we need to multiply 3.90 and 4. The product is 15.60, but we still have half a yard left. Simply divide $3.90 by 2 to get the price of half a yard ($1.95). Now, add them together to get $17.55
