Answer:
The total yards of cloth needed for the flags = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Jake and his dad are making (6,12,18) different types of flags.
Each flag takes [tex](\frac{2}{3},\frac{3}{4},\frac{5}{6})[/tex] of a yard of cloth.
To find the total yards of cloth needed in all.
Solution:
Flag A :
Each flag requires = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of a yard of cloth
Total number of this flag = 6
Total cloth required for this flag = [tex]\frac{2}{3}\times 6 = 4\ yd[/tex]
Flag B:
Each flag requires = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of a yard of cloth
Total number of this flag = 12
Total cloth required for this flag = [tex]\frac{3}{4}\times 12 = 9\ yd[/tex]
Flag C:
Each flag requires = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] of a yard of cloth
Total number of this flag = 18
Total cloth required for this flag = [tex]\frac{5}{6}\times 18 = 15\ yd[/tex]
Thus, total yards of cloth needed for the flags = [tex]4\ yd+9\ yd+15\ yd =28\ yd[/tex]
