Respuesta :
$ 247.5 is earned from selling shirts using the fabric she has
Solution:
Given that, Kaya works for a T-shirt company and has 49.5 yards of fabric to make specialty T-shirts
Each T-shirt needs 4.5 yards if fabric and sells for $22.50
To find: Amount earned by using the fabric she has
From given question,
Total yards of fabric = 49.5
Fabric needed for 1 shirt = 4.5 yards
Number of shirts made is given by:
[tex]\text{Number of shirts made} = \frac{\text{Total yards of fabric}}{\text{Fabric needed for 1 shirt}}\\\\\text{Number of shirts made} = \frac{49.5}{4.5} = 11[/tex]
Thus 11 shirts are made
Each shirt is sold for $ 22.50
Cost of 11 shirts = 11 x 22.50 = 247.5
Thus $ 247.5 is earned from selling shirts
