Question

Ciara needs 4 yards of fabric for a dress. She already had 2 1/4 yards of fabric

Answer 1

The rest length of fabric she required to make total length of 4 yards is
`(7)/(4)`

Explanation:

The Total length of fabric required by Ciara is 4 yards

The length of fabric she already had = 2
`(1)/(4)`

=
`((8 + 1))/(4)`

=
`(9)/(4)`

So, The Rest length of fabric is needs = 4 -
`(9)/(4)`

=
`((16 - 9))/(4)`

=
`(7)/(4)`

Hence the rest length of fabric she required to make total length of 4 yards is
`(7)/(4)` Answer
