valentine1

I plan to make valentines this year and need to buy lace to put around the outside of each heart.  One valentine uses 2 feet of lace and I plan to make 5 valentines.  If lace is on sale for $0.50 a yard, how much will it cost me to make my valentines?
Will I have any lace left over?
Show your work (remember 3 feet = 1 yard).







For 4th and 5th graders:  Suppose I want to make larger valentines and I need 30 inches of lace for each valentine.  What will it cost me now to make 5 valentines and will I have any lace left over?
