Question

operations with whole numbers - mixed practice - item 92728
a pattern for 1 uniform uses 12 yards of material. boleslaw wants to know how many yards are needed for 8 uniforms. chantal wants to know how many yards she will need to make 15 uniforms. drag an expression to answer each question.
12 × 15 15 + 1 12 × 8 8 × 1 15 − 12 15 ÷ 12
question expression
boleslaw: how many yards for 8 uniforms? drag and drop an item here
chantal: how many yards for 15 uniforms? drag and drop an item here

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze Boleslaw's Question

Boleslaw needs yards for 8 uniforms. Since 1 uniform needs 12 yards, we multiply the number of uniforms (8) by yards per uniform (12). So the expression is \(12 \times 8\).

Step2: Analyze Chantal's Question

Chantal needs yards for 15 uniforms. Using the same logic, multiply 15 (number of uniforms) by 12 (yards per uniform). So the expression is \(12 \times 15\).

Answer:

Boleslaw: \(12 \times 8\)
Chantal: \(12 \times 15\)
