I am going to use C to represent cookbook and N to represent N. I find that easier to remember which is which.
Day 1: 5C + 3N = 167
Day 2: 3C + 1N = 89
We need to solve one of these equation for either the C or N. I always choose the easiest one! Day 2 looks like the one.
3C + 1N = 89 (I am doing to solve for N because we won't have a fraction)
1N=89-3C
N=89-3C
Now we take this solution for N and put it into our first equation.
5C + 3(89-3C) = 167 (We need to distribute)
5C + 267 - 9C = 167 (Use subtraction to move C values to the right and numbers to the left)
267-167 = 9C-5C
100 = 4C
25 = C $25 for the Cookbooks.
Now, we have to go back and solve for N by putting $25 in for C in the second equation.
N=89-3(25)
N=89-75
N=14 dollars for each novel.
Check by putting both back into the first equation:
5C + 3N = 167
5(25) + 3(14) = 167. It checks out!

Answer:
If I did my math correctly, I'm pretty sure the answer is 3 1/36 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First, you have to turn them all into an improper fraction.
1 7/18 becomes 25/18
1 2/9 becomes 11/9
5/12 remains the same as it's already an improper fraction.
2. Find a common denominator, which is 36
25/18 becomes 50/36
11/9 becomes 44/36
5/12 becomes 15/36
3. Add them all together and you get 109/36
4. Turn it into a mixed number, and in this case, is 3 1/36
Solution is 3 1/36
