well you have to do 42 divided 3 because 1 yard = 3 ft.                                                           14 is your answer

Answer:

Ann should buy 14 yards of fabric.

Explanation:

Ann needs 42 feet of fabric to make small quilt.

Now we have to convert this length to yards.

Since 1 feet length = (1/3) yards

therefore 42 feet length = 42×(1/3) = 14 yards

Ann should buy 14 yards of fabric to make a quilt.
