Answer 2

Answer:

the number of yards be 0.3125

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of yards will each piece of fabric be is shown below:

Given that

There is $3 \frac{3}{4}$ yards long i.e. 15 ÷ 4

And, it should be cut into 12 equal pieces

So, the number of yards   will each piece of fabric be is

= 15 ÷ 4 ÷ 12 ÷ 1

= 15 ÷ 48

= 0.3125

Hence, the number of yards be 0.3125
