If it takes 16 yards of material to make 5/2 costumes, how much material will be needed to make 19/2 costumes of that same size? A.
60.8 yards
B.
50.7 yards
C.
40 yards
D.
34 yards

Respuesta :

yards/costumes:16/(5/2) = X/(19/2)

Cross multiply.

(5/2)x = 152

Multiply both sides by 2/5.

x = 101 1/3 yards
