Molly bought 12.5 yards of fabric for 4.50 dollars a yard to make dog beds. she uses2.5 yards of fabric for each dog bed. she sells each dog bed for 17.50 dollars. after subtracting the cost of the fabric how much money does molly earn if she sells all of the dog beds?

12.5 yds at 4.50 per yd : 12.5 * 4.50 = 56.25what she paid for the fabric

she uses 2.5 yds of fabric for each dog bed12.5 / 2.5 = 5...so she can make 5 dog beds

each dog bed sells for 17.505 * 17.50 = 87.50

87.50 (what she earned from selling the dog beds) - 56.25 (the cost of the fabric) = 31.25so her total profit is $ 31.25 <==
