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.

If Holly gets 14 % off a shirt , what percent of the original price will still pay​
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Holly will still pay 86% of the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • Holly gets 14% off a shirt, so
  • Discount = 14%

To determine

What percent of the original price will still pay.

All we need is to subtract the percentage of discount from 100.

i.e.

100 - Discount = 100 - 14 = 86%

The amount left over would be what remains of the original price after Holly gets 14 % off a shirt.

Thus, Holly will still pay 86% of the original price.
