To sew holiday tablecloths for the school dance, Mrs. Stitcher bought four more than three times as many yards of red fabric than of gold fabric. If she bought a total of 112 yards, how many yards of each color did she buy?

Mrs. Stitcher bought 27 yards of red fabric and 85 yards of gold fabric, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be and the total of red and gold fabric, measured in yards. After a careful reading of statement, we get the following two linear equations:

Red fabric vs. Gold fabric

(Eq. 1)

Total fabric amount

(Eq. 2)

Then, we reduce the current system of equation into a sole equation by elimination: (Eq. 1) in (Eq. 2)

Then,

Mrs. Stitcher bought 27 yards of red fabric and 85 yards of gold fabric, respectively.

27 red 85 gold

Step-by-step explanation:

36 girls

the 48 boys is 4 parts of the ratio

divide 48 by 4 to obtain one part of the ratio

= 12 ← 1 part of the ratio

3 parts = 3 × 12 = 36 ← number of girls
