The closest is 1.66 yards per ribbon. All you have to do is divide the 8 1/3 (8.33) by 5 (8.66/5) and that should be it.

8 1/3 divided by 5
=8 1/3 *1/5
=25/3 *1/5
=25/15
=1 10/15

How do you solve for the quotient of (x^-1) - 1 ÷ x - 1?

Ber [7]

$\bf x^{-1}-1\div x-1\implies \implies \cfrac{1}{x}-1\div x-1\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{x}-1}{~~x-1~~}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{1-x}{x}~~}{\frac{x-1}{1}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{1-x}{x}\cdot \cfrac{1}{x-1}\implies \cfrac{-(\begin{matrix} x-1 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix})}{x}\cdot \cfrac{1}{\begin{matrix} x-1 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}}\implies -\cfrac{1}{x}\implies -x^{-1}$

1/X 1/4=7/12 solve and check solution

liraira [26]

$\frac { 1 }{ x } +\frac { 1 }{ 4 } =\frac { 7 }{ 12 } \\ \\ \frac { 1 }{ x } =\frac { 7 }{ 12 } -\frac { 1 }{ 4 }$

$\\ \\ \frac { 1 }{ x } =\frac { 7 }{ 12 } -\frac { 3 }{ 12 } \\ \\ \frac { 1 }{ x } =\frac { 4 }{ 12 } =\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \\ \\ 3x\cdot \frac { 1 }{ x } =\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \cdot 3x\\ \\ x=3$
