Answer:

2 cloaks, 14 fabrics

Step-by-step explanation:

we know the ratio of fabric : cloaks which is 21:6

let's make the unknown number of cloaks = x

21 : 6

7 : x

cross multiply

42 = 21x

divide 21 on both sides

x = 42 ÷ 21 = 2 cloaks

to find unknown number of fabrics, let's make it x,

using the ratio of 21:6

21 : 6

x : 4

cross multiply

84 = 6x

divide 6 on both sides

84 ÷ 6 = 14 fabrics

Answer:

Fabric --------------- Cloaks

21 ------------------------- 6

7 --------------------------- 2

14 -------------------------- 4

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the problem, it says that 6 cloaks need 21 square meters of fabric

So 1 cloak = 21 ÷ 6 = 3.5 square meters

So we do 7 ÷ 3.5 to figure out how many cloaks you can make with 7 square meters of fabric

7 ÷ 3.5 = 2

So for 7 square meters of fabric, you can make 2 cloaks

And to find out how much fabric is needed for 4 cloaks, we multiply 4 and 3.5

4 × 3.5 = 14

So for 4 cloaks, we need 14 square meters of fabric
