Question

Leslie needs 324 inches of fringe to put around the edge of a tablecloth. The fringe comes in lengths of 10 yard. If Leslie buys 1 package of fringe, how many feet of fringe will she have left over

Answer 1

Leslie will have 3 feet of fringe leftover. 324 ÷ 12 = 27, so now you know what 324 inches is equal to in feet. Since there are 3 feet in a yard, 10 × 3 = 30 feet, so now you know how much each package holds. 30 - 27 = 3. She will have 3 feet leftover. Hope this helped!!! :)
