Answer:
[tex]42[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Another way to look at this question is: We make 5/6 yards of fabric from each pair of shorts. How many shorts do we need to make 35 yards of fabric.
So, we need to solve this equation for [tex]x[/tex]: [tex]x*5/6=35[/tex].
We can multiply both sides of the equation by [tex]6[/tex] to get [tex]x*5=210[/tex].
We then divide by [tex]5[/tex] on both sides to get [tex]x=42[/tex].
So, we can make [tex]\boxed{42}[/tex] pairs of soccer shorts.
