119. it takes 2 yd of fabric to make a costume for a school play. how much fabric would be
needed for seven costumes?

Hello!

if you use 2 3/8 yards of fabric to make a costume, and need 7 costumes, multiply the amount of fabric needed by the amount of costumes needed

2 3/8 * 7 = 14 21/8

then simplify the fraction

21/8 = 2 5/8

add it to the whole number

14 + 2 5/8 = 16 5/8

you need 16 5/8 yards of fabric to make 7 dresses

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
