1 answer

To find the number of backpacks Martin can make, we need to divide the total amount of fabric he has by the amount of fabric used for each backpack.

9 yards / (3/5 yard/backpack) = 9 * (5/3) = 45/3 = <<9*(5/3)=15>>15

Martin can make 15 backpacks with 9 yards of fabric. Answer: \boxed{15}.
