Question

Erica bought 3 ½ yards of fabric. If she uses 2/3 of the fabric to make a curtain, how much will she have left?
A. 1/6 yd.
B. 1/3 yd.
C. 1 1/6 yd.
D. 2 1/3 yd.

Answer 1

Total fabric Erica bought = $3\frac{1}{2}$ yards

= 7/2 yards

Fabric used to make curtains = 2/3 of Total fabric

= $\frac{2}{3} * \frac{7}{2}$

= 7/3 yards

Fabric left with her = Total fabric - fabric used to make curtains

= $\frac{7}{2} - \frac{7}{3}$

= $\frac{21 - 14}{6}$

= 7/6 yards

= $1\frac{1}{6}$ yards

Hence, fabric she have left = $1\frac{1}{6}$ yards
