Lucia is helping her grandmother make a quilt. They have 4 yards of fabric, which is equal to 144 inches. They need an additional 1 1/2 yards of fabric to finish the trim.

They need an additional 54 inches of fabric

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved by using the unitary method.

Unitary method is that we find the measure of 1 unit and then mulitply it with the required number to get the actual measurement.

4 yards of fabric  is equal to 144 inches

1 yard of fabric  is equal to 144 inches/4= 36 inches

They need an additional 1 1/2 yards of fabric

So multiplying 1 1/2*36= 3/2*36= 3*36/2= 108/2= 54 inches

They need an additional 54 inches of fabric

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
