One scarf takes 3/5 of a yard. Two of these takes 6/5 of a yard. If we put the 1 7/10 into an improper fraction we would get 17/10. So in order to compare the two fractions, the 6/5 and the 17/10, they have to have the same denominator. 6/5 can be rewritten as 12/10. 12/10 is less that the 17/10 you have, so yes you can make two scarves with that amount of fabric.
Answer:
2.88
Explanation:
If you break down the equation we see that 8 is the number of boxes and 1.44 is the price of each box. So if you wanted to change the equation the formula would be: (1.44)x = cost so if you wanted to figure out how much 2 boxes would be, you just plug in 2 for x and you get (1.44)2 = 2.88
