Answer:

a) Eva will need 2 bags of clay to make both pieces of pottery.

b) She will have leftover $\frac{11}{10}$ pounds of clay.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We have to find the total amount of clay, as she needs $\frac{3}{5}pound=P_{1}$ and $\frac{7}{10}pound=P_{2}$ , so $P_{1}+P_{2}= \frac{3}{5} +\frac{7}{10} =\frac{6+7}{10}=\frac{13}{10}pounds$ , is the total amount of clay. Then as we Know that one bag of clay has $\frac{4}{5} =\frac{8}{10} pounds$ , It isn´t enough, but with two bags $2*\frac{8}{10}=\frac{16}{10} pounds$ , It is enough clay.

b) She will have leftover $\frac{16}{10} -\frac{13}{10} =\frac{3}{10}pounds$ of the second bag, then we add the third one, so $\frac{3}{10} +\frac{8}{10} =\frac{11}{10}pounds$ are leftover.
