Question

Julie and Erin have 6 1/3 yards of red checked cloth. After making dresses for 4 dolls, they use the remaining cloth to make bows for the doll's hair. They need 8 bows for 4 dolls. How much cloth do Julie and Erin have for each bow?

Answer 1

So there is 8 * 4 = 32

6 1/3 - 32 = ???

Answer 2

First find out how much each dress is, then multiply by 4, then subtract that from the number of red cloth, then find out how much each bow is, and multiply by 8 and subtract the red cloth again. i cant really understand
