Question

Jacqui has 3 1/2 yards of fabric to make a costume. She used 1/4 of the fabric to make a hat. How much of the fabric did she use

Answer 1

To find a quarter you just need to divide 3.5 by 4. So Jacqui uses 0.875 yards of fabric to make a hat.

Answer 2

She use 1.087 fabric because of you do 3 1/2 -1/4 all u have to do is 3✖️2 +1 will get you 7/2.Then you have to cross multiply which is 7✖️4 1✖️2 2✖️4 and 4✖️2 which IS 28/14 - 2/14= 26/14.. Reduce time !, 26 divided by
