Question

Ellen is making a jacket, which costs $42 at the store. She will need 5 yd. of fabric at $4.79 per yard, a pattern that costs $2.50, and a zipper that costs $3.15. She has thread at home. About how much will she save by making the jacket herself?

Answer 1

Well 5*$4.79= $23.95+2.50+3.15=$29.60 and then you do $42.00-29.60=$12.40 so she will save 12.40

Answer 2

Is that one of your answer choices.?
