2/3 yard of fabric = 2 feet of this fabric = which is used to make 1 scarf

1 3/4 yards = ?

1 yard = 3 feet = 36 inches

3/4 of 36

36 /4 = 9

9 * 3 = 27

36 + 27 = 63

63 inches of fabric would mean that she can 2 scarves as 2 scarves would use 48 inches or 4 feet as 1 scarf uses 2 feet. She will also have 15 inches of extra fabric.
