Solution
Given:
- • It takes \(\frac{14}{3}\) feet of wood to make a frame of lithograph
• Wood is sold at $5 a yard and only by a yard
• Collector needs to make 4 frames
• 1 yard = 3 feet
To find:
- • The cost of wood required to make 4 frames
Approach and Working:
- • The total wood required to make 4 frames = \(\frac{14}{3} * 4 feet = \frac{56}{3} feet = \frac{56}{3} * \frac{1}{3} yards = \frac{56}{9} yards = 6.22 yards\)
As wood is sold only by the yard,
- • Total wood required = 7 yards
• Therefore, total cost = 7 * 5 = 35
Hence, the correct answer is option D.
