2/5 yards of fabric

Step-by-step explanation:

A total of 2 yards of fabric is used to make 5 identical pillows. How much fabric is used for each pillow?

5 identical pillows = 2 yards of fabric

1 pillow = x yards

Cross Multiply

x yards × 5 pillows = 2 yards × 1 pillow

x yards = 2 yards × 1 pillow/5 pillows

x yards = 2/5 yards of fabric

Therefore, 2/5 yards of fabric was used for 1 pillow

8

step-by-step explanation:

this is a subtraction problem.

10 - 2 = 8

it will cost dollar $540

the living room is 3 which means if we divide 325/3 then we get $108

therefore if 1part of the living room cost $108 and 3 costed $325

then total 5part of the room will cost 5*108 which gives $540
