Answer 1

A suit = pants + jacket + vest
= 2 3/4 + 7/8 + 3 1/2
= 7 1/8 or 57/8

B How many times does A go into 171 ?

C What is $1,800 divided by B ?

D What is C plus $290 plus $100 ?

Answer 2

A: Add the number of yards for each piece of the suit (find a common denominator after you turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions).

B: Divide the yards of material required for each suit by the number of yards on each roll.

C: Find the cost of the material per yard (divide the price of the roll by the number of yards in the roll), then multiply the number of yards required per suit by the price per yard.

D: Cost of material per suit + $290 + $100 = charge for each suit.
