Fabric needs to make a dress = 3 1/4
fabric needs to make jacket= 3 1/4 - 5/6
= 29/12 or 2 5/12
Hence total fabric needed for both pieces is
= 3 1/4 + 2 5/12
= 68/12 or 5 8/12 or 5 2/3 yards
Answer:
t = 20 + q (minutes)
Step-by-step explanation:
The meeting consists of speaking and Question & Answer (Q&A) sessions.
Speaking session = 20 minutes
Q&A session = q minutes
Total number of minutes spent for the two sessions = 20 + q (minutes)
But total number of minutes meeting lasted = t minutes.
Therefore, t = 20 + q (because they both represent the total number of minutes the meeting lasted)

Quick Review:
By doing the inverse of 7/12, 12/7, when you multiply it, you'll get a value of 1.
7/12 * 12/7 = 1
Doing the Problem:
By multiplying 5 1/4 by 12/7, you'll get the answer. But first, convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction.
5 1/4 ---> 21/4
Okay, lets go!
21/4 * 12/7 = 252/28
<u>When reduced, this gives you the answer 9/1, or 9 gallons.</u>
Hope that helps, :)
