Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given that:

Length of remnant fabric = 9.7m

Number of 0.85m length needed for patio = 12

Total length needed = (0.85 * 12) = 10.2m

The length of fabric needed is more than the length of remnant fabric found ;

10.2 m - 9.7m = 0.5m

Hence, Alex will need 0.5m more fabric
