Casey has 8 1 2 yards of fabric. she uses 2 1 2 yards to make pillows and 3 yards to make curtains. how much fabric is remaining? a) 2 yards b) 2 1 2 yards c) 3 yards d) 3 1 2 yards

So, Erica bought 312 yards of fabric. To make this easier to work with, we convert it to an improper fraction. Now we know Erica has 72 yards of fabric.

Next, she uses 23 of it. This means that 13(=1−23) of the fabric is remaining.

To get 13 of 72, we just multiply them:

(13)(72)=76

So now we know Erica has 76 yards of fabric remaining. This is equivalent to 116 yards, or 1 yard and 6 inches.

The answer is C) 3 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

You first add 2 1/2 and 3 which will equal 5 1/2. This is the total amount of fabric she has used, she needs to find out how much she has left. Then you would do 8 1/2 - 5 1/2 = 3 yards of fabric remaining.
