Answer:
4 1/6 yards
Explanation:
We can add the two lengths of fabric:
(1 1/3) + (2 5/6) yards
Convert both the fractions:
(1 1/3) = (3/3) + (1/3) = (4/3)
(2 5/6) = (12/6)+(5/6) = (17/6)
Noqw add the two pieces: (4/3) + (17/6)
In oder to add these two fraqctions, they must first have the same denominator. If we multiplied by the first fraction by (2/2), we get:
(2/2)*(4/3) = (8/6) Now this can be added to the second fraction:
(8/6)+(17/6) = (25/6)
This is = to 4 1/6 yards
