Please help me I will give brainliest to whoever is right. Latasha went to the fabric store and bought 3 1/4 yards of red fabric

and 3 1/2 yards of blue fabric. How many yards of fabric did Latasha buy altogether?
A student solved the problem this way: 3 1/4 + 3 1/2 = 3 1/4 + 3 2/4 = 6 3/4

Latasha bought 6 3/4 yards of fabric.

Use a similar strategy to solve this problem.

A. 5 7/9 yards

B. 5 5/9 yards

C. 5 2/3 yards

2 2/3=8/3 or 24/9
3 1/9=28/9
Add all the result together to get;
52/9 or 5 7/9. As a result, the answer will be A. Hope it help!
