Answer:

B. No, the rug should be about 4 feet from the edge of each wall.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rug has a length of 6\frac{1}{3} feet and the room has an overall length of 13\frac{3}{4}, you can find the remaining length of the room, but subtracting the two lengths:

13\frac{3}{4}-6\frac{1}{3}

First, find a common denominator.  In this case, '12':

13\frac{3}{4}=13\frac{9}{12}\\ 6\frac{1}{3}=6\frac{4}{12}

Subtract:

13\frac{9}{12}-6\frac{4}{12}=7\frac{5}{12}

Given that there is almost 8 feet of extra space left in the room, in order for Leslie to place the rug in the center, it should be about 4 feet from the edge of each wall.
