To answer this question, we just need to subtract the saved cloth from the requested cloth:

\frac{5}{6} - \frac{5}{12}

Since the fractions don't have the same denominator, we have to find the least common denominator.  Luckily, since 6 goes into 12 twice, we can convert \frac{5}{6} into \frac{10}{12}:

\frac{5}{6}( \frac{2}{2}) - \frac{5}{12} = \frac{10}{12} - \frac{5}{12}

Now that the fractions have a common denominator, we can subtract them:

\frac{10}{12} - \frac{5}{12} = \frac{5}{12}

The difference between the requested cloth and the saved cloth is 5/12 of a foot, or 0.4166'.
