Leslie needs 324 inches of fringe to put around the edge of a tablecloth. The front comes in lengths of 10 yards. If Leslie buys 1 package of fringe how many feet of fringe will she have left over ??

10 multiplied by 36 ( as in the number of inches in a yard) is 360. Then take the total needed inches of fringe and subtract the 360 inches of fringe in one package. You will come out with 36 inches but the question is asking in feet so divide it by 3. Your answer is 3 feet.
Hope this helps!
