(i will give brainliest. answer quickly) leia cuts congruent triangular patches with an area of 21 square centimeters from a rectangular piece of fabric that is 14 centimeters long and 6 centimeters wide. how many of the patches can leia cut from 31 pieces of the fabric?

The first step to solve this problem is to find the area of the rectangular piece of fabric.

A of triangle = bh/2

A = (14 cm) (6 cm) /2

A = 84 cm^2 / 2

A = 42 cm

And since there are 31 pieces of the fabric, the total area of all the pieces of fabric is:

31 pieces of fabric x 42 square centimeters per piece = 1,302 square centimeters

To computer how many congruent triangular patches can be cut, you have to divide the total area of the fabric pieces with the area of the congruent triangle:

1,302 square centimeters / 21 square centimeters = 62

Therefore, Leia can cut 62 patches.
