Reggie is making doll clothes for his little sister and he has 3 yarns fabric and each dress use 3/8 for each dress so how many dresses can he make

1 answer

To determine how many dresses Reggie can make with his yarn fabric, we first need to know the total amount of yarn fabric he has.

Assuming that the "3 yarns fabric" means he has a total of 3 units (or yards) of fabric, we can perform the following calculation:

Each dress uses \( \frac{3}{8} \) yards of fabric.

To find out how many dresses can be made:

  1. Convert the total fabric to the same unit (if it’s in yards)

    • Total fabric = 3 yards
  2. Divide the total yards by the amount needed for each dress: \[ \text{Number of dresses} = \frac{\text{Total fabric}}{\text{Fabric per dress}} = \frac{3}{\frac{3}{8}} = 3 \times \frac{8}{3} = 8 \]

So, Reggie can make 8 dresses with 3 yards of fabric, using \( \frac{3}{8} \) yards for each dress.
