One scarf takes 3/5 of a yard. Two of these takes 6/5 of a yard. If we put the 1 7/10 into an improper fraction we would get 17/10. So in order to compare the two fractions, the 6/5 and the 17/10, they have to have the same denominator. 6/5 can be rewritten as 12/10. 12/10 is less that the 17/10 you have, so yes you can make two scarves with that amount of fabric.
Alright my friend so if she ran 1/4 a mile in just 3 minutes then her overall time will be 12 minutes because she still has 3 more to go so basically it'll be 3 x 4 = 12
