Q. Susan and her two best friends are all dressing up as superheroes for Halloween this year. Their costumes are almost ready, but each person still needs to make a cape. If each cape uses

4

feet of cloth, how many yards of cloth will they use for the

3

capes?

\newline

Write your answer as a whole number, decimal, or simplified fraction. Do not round.

\newline

\_\_\_\_

yards

\newline

Calculate cloth needed: Determine the total amount of cloth needed in feet. Each cape uses $4$ feet of cloth, and there are $3$ capes. $4 \, \text{feet/cape} \times 3 \, \text{capes} = 12 \, \text{feet}$ Total amount of cloth needed: $12$ feet
Convert to yards: Convert the total amount of cloth from feet to yards. $\newline$ There are $3$ feet in $1$ yard. $\newline$ To convert feet to yards, divide the number of feet by $3$ . $\newline$ $12$ feet $/$ $3$ feet/yard $=$ $4$ yards $\newline$ Total amount of cloth needed: $4$ yards
