Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Kristin has 3 2/3 yards of plaid ribbon. Converting 3 2/3 yards to improper fraction, it becomes 11/3 yards of plaid ribbon.

She has 2 5/6 yards of polka - dot ribbon. Converting 2 5/6 yards to improper fraction, it becomes 17/6 yards of polka - dot ribbon.

The total number of yards of ribbon that Kristin has would be

11/3 + 17/6 = (22 + 17)/6 = 39/6 yards of ribbon.

Converting to decimal, it becomes 6.5 yards of ribbon. Approximating 6.5 to the nearest yards, it becomes 7 yards. This is because the first digit after the decimal point is 5 and thus, can be rounded up

20=8+v i dont know how to do this
Tasya [4]
20 = 8 + v equals v = 12.

First,  subtract 8 from both sides. Your problem should look like: 20 - 8 = v
Second,  simplify 20 - 8 to get 12. Your problem should look like: 12 = v.
Third, switch sides to get v = 12, which is the correct answer.
