Answer :
48f=8b
÷8 ÷8 (divided by 8)
6f=b
it takes 6 feet of fabric to make 1 blanket
6f=1b 3f=y
36f=6b
12y=6b
it takes 12 yards to make 6 blankets
÷8 ÷8 (divided by 8)

36f=6b
12y=6b
it takes 12 yards to make 6 blankets
Answer:
With 6 yards can made 3 blankets
Step-by-step explanation:
First it is necessary to convert 6 yards into feets. This is calculate using a rule of three in which 1 yard is equivalent to 3 feets, so how many feets are 6 yards. This is:
1 yard ------------------ 3 feet
6 yards ---------------- X
Where X is the number of feets that are equal to 6 yards. Then X is equal to:
[tex]X=\frac{6 yards* 3 feets}{1 yard} = 18 feets[/tex]
Then, using a rule of three, if the sewing club made 8 blankets with 48 feet, then how many blankets could be made with 18 feets. This is:
8 Blankets -------------- 48 feet
Y -------------- 18 feets
Where Y is the number of blankets that could be made with 18 feets. Solving for Y, we get:
[tex]Y=\frac{8 Blankets*18 feets}{48 feets} = 3 Blankets[/tex]
So, with 6 yards or 18 feets of fabric the sewing club can made 3 blankets.
