Given:
10 yards required
5 2/3 yards on hand.

We need to subtract the yards on hand from the total yards required.

First, we need to convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction.

5 2/3 = ((5*3)+2)/3 = (15+2)/3 = 17/3

Second, we need to multiply 10 by a fraction that will give us the denominator of 3.

10 * 3/3 = (10*3)/3 = 30/3

Third, we do subtraction using our derived fractions.

30/3 - 17/3 = (30-17)/3 = 13/3

Lastly, we simplify the improper fraction. Improper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is greater than its denominator. Its simplified form is a mixed fraction.

13/3 = 4 1/3

Arliss needs to buy 4 1/3 yards more to complete the required yard length.

bazaltina [42]
When you want to find a percent of a number you do this:
given number/ 1   multiplied by   percentage/100

so in this question its a multiple step 

start with finding 25 percent of 4250 which is= 1062.5
so thats how much the discount is so the amount after the 25% discount is:
4250-1062.5= 3187.5

then you have to add 9% due to fees
so you find 9% of 3187.5 which is= 286.875
so you add 286.875 to 3187.5 gives you= 3437.375 in total cost for the vacation package
