Given:
Bolt of fabric = 14 3/8 yards
length of fabric per skirt = 2 1/2 yards

Convert mixed fractions into improper fractions.

14 3/8 ⇒ (14*8)+3/8 = 115/8
2 1/2 ⇒ (2*2)+1/2 = 5/2

115/8 ÷ 5/2 

115/8 * 2/5 = 115*2 / 8*5 = 230 / 40
230/40 = 5.75

5 whole skirt

5/2 * 5 = 25/2 length of fabric used to make 5 skirts.

115/8 - 25/2 = 115/8 - (25/2 * 4/4) = 115/8 - 100/8 = 15/8 length of excess fabric

15/8 = 1 7/8 yards of fabric will be left.

andriy [413]

Answer:

She can buy 0.8 cents worth of Gummy worms and 1.2 cents worth of sour patches

Step-by-step explanation:

Keisha is allowed to buy only 2 pounds bag of candy.

Now, she can choose either gummy worms or sour patches.

Gummy worms are 0.4 cents per pound while sour patches are 0.6 cents per pound.

Thus, maximum amount she can spend on gummy worms is; 0.4 × 2 = 0.8 cents

Maximum she can spend on sour patches is; 0.6 × 2 = 1.2 cents

She can buy 0.8 cents worth of Gummy worms and 1.2 cents worth of sour patches

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer: 7/26

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of purple marbles = 6

Number of white marbles = 7

Total number of marbles = 13

The probability of first drawing a white marble will be = 7/13

The probability of drawing a purple marble the second time will be = 6/12 = 1/2

The probability that the first marble is white and the second one is purple will now be:

= 7/13 × 1/2

= 7/26

Note that since there are 13 marbles, when the first purple marble is drawn, there'll be 12 marbles left.
