Reggie is making doll clothes for his litle sister. He has 3 yards of fabric. If each dress uses 3/8 yards of fabrc, how many dresses can he make?

1 answer

To find out how many dresses Reggie can make, we need to divide the total amount of fabric he has by the amount of fabric each dress uses.

3 yards of fabric divided by 3/8 yards per dress equals 3 / (3/8) = 3 * 8/3

This simplifies to 24/3, which equals 8.

Therefore, Reggie can make 8 dresses for his little sister.
