Answer 2

Answer : The number of yards of ribbon she use is, $\frac{1}{42}$ yards.

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that the Betty had $\frac{1}{7}$ yards of ribbon. And she used $\frac{1}{6}$ of it.

Now we have to determine the number of yards of ribbon she use.

Number of yards of ribbon she use = Total yards of ribbon × Used ribbon

Number of yards of ribbon she use = $\frac{1}{7}\times \frac{1}{6}$

Number of yards of ribbon she use = $\frac{1}{42}$

Thus, the number of yards of ribbon she use is, $\frac{1}{42}$ yards.
