To find the estimated cost of the velvet that Yvette buys, we can multiply the cost per yard by the number of yards purchased.
Cost per yard = $11.49
Number of yards = 9.3
Total cost = Cost per yard × Number of yards
Total cost = $11.49 × 9.3
Now, calculating this:
\[
Total\ cost = 11.49 \times 9.3 \approx 106.92
\]
So, Yvette's estimated cost of the velvet is approximately $106.92.
