If she used all of her yarn, she'd have 24 pieces. If she wanted 1.25 left, she'd have ten less because 24 • .125 = 8, and 1/4 of eight = 2, and 2 + 8 = 10.
So she'd have 14 pieces.

Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 3 = 11
Add 3 to each side
7x - 3+3 = 11+3
7x = 14
Divide by 7
7x/7 = 14/7
x = 2
Answer:
The solution to this system is (4, 1/6).
Step-by-step explanation:
Please separate these two equations for clarity. I like to write them in column format:
2.5y + 3x = 27
5x – 2.5y = 5
---------------------
8x = 32, and x = 4.
Subbing 4 for x in the second equation yields 5(4) - 2.5y = 5.
Then 20 - 2.5y = 5, or 15 = 2.5y. Solving for y, we get y = 1/6.
The solution to this system is thus (4, 1/6).
