Sally needs 1 3/4 yards of fabric to make a dress. she has 4 5/8 yards. how many yards of fabric will be left over?

Hey there,

Solution:
Fabric needed = 1 3 / 4
Fabric she has = 4 5 / 8
1 3 / 4 - make the denominator into 8
1 3 / 4 = 1 6 / 8
Fabric left = 4 5 / 8 - 1 6 / 8
                = 37 / 8 - 14 / 8 
                = 23 / 8
                = 2 7 / 8

Hope this helps :))
