A clothing pattern calls for 4.81 yd2 of fabric. How many square inches of fabric does the pattern use?

Total square inches of fabric.

To answer this question you need to know how many square inches makes up one square yard.

1296 square inches makes one square yard.

Therefore total square inches =

1296x4.81 = 6233.76 square inches

The answer is 6215.75 square inches. The area of the fabric is 4.81 square yards so taking the square root of that I get approx 2.19 yards. Checking, 2.19 x 2.19 yards = 4.81 sq yds. I yard is 36 inches so 2.19 x 36 = 78.84 inches and when this is squared ie 78.84 x 78.84 you get 6215.75 square inches.
