Answer:

1/4 of a yard

Explanation:

Susanna found a roll of fabric she want to use to make a pillow. The roll had 3/4 of a yard of fabric left. Suzanne need 1/3 of the remaining fabric. Which fraction represents how much fabric Susanna needed?

Yard of fabric left = 3/4 of a yard

Yards needed by Susanna = 1/3 of the remaining fabrics

= 1/3 of 3/4 of a yard

= 1/3 × 3/4

= 1/4 of a yard

Therefore Susanna needs 1/4 of a yard of fabrics

The fraction which represents how much fabric Susanna needed is 1/4 of a yard
