50 1/2 = 50.5
50.5 + -12.3
When adding a negative number to a positive number, it basically becomes just subtraction so 50.5 + -12.3 means 50.5 - 12.3
50.5 - 12.3 = 38.2
Ok, so what we want to do here is first remove the repeating decimal.
x=2.16 repeating
10x=21.6 repeating
100x=216.6 repeating
Subtract 10x=21.6 repeating from 100x=216.6 repeating. This will get rid of the repeating numbers.
100x=216.6 repeating
-10x=21.6 repeating

90x=195
Divide both sides by 90.
x=195/90
Now you can simplify that into 13/6.
The yard of fabric that Melissa has is 6 inches squared since there are 36 inches in a yard and 6 times 6 is 36. The footrest has a surface area of 902 inches squared since the surface area of a rectangular prism is 2(lw+wh+lh).
