To determine how many yards of fabric Joanne will use for each costume, you will need to divide the total amount of fabric by the number of costumes. Therefore, the correct operation to use is:
Division
For the second question, you would divide 1314 yards by 4.5 costumes:
\[ \text{Yards per costume} = \frac{1314 \text{ yd}}{4.5} \]
Calculating that gives:
\[ \frac{1314}{4.5} \approx 292.0 \text{ yd per costume} \]
Now, converting that to a mixed number:
292.0 can be written as:
\[ 292 \text{ yd} \]
However, in the options you provided, it appears none of them matches this result directly as it seems like there may have been a transcription error or misunderstanding in the options.
Can you please confirm the provided options or clarify them if they might have been misrepresented?
