One patterned blue fabric sells for $15.00 every two yards, and another sells for $37.50 every 5 yards. Do these fabrics have the same unit cost? Please then explain.

Sagot :

All we need to do is to find out how much is worth one yard in both fabrics, so we divide $15.00 by 2 and $37.50 by 5:

$15.00 ÷ 2 = $7.50 per yard
$37.50 ÷ 5 = $7.50 per yard

As both prices per yard are the same, the answer is: Yes, these fabrics have the same unit cost.
