Let
x----------------> <span>feet of yarn of Becky
y----------------> </span><span>feet of yarn of James
we know that
4 2/8------> 4 1/4--------> (4*4+1)/4-----> 17/4
1 5/8------> (1*8+5)/8-----> 13/5
x+y=4 2/8-------> x+y=17/4----> equation 1
x=1 5/8--------> x=13/5------> equation 2
substitute 2 in 1
[13/5]+y=17/4------> y=(17/4)-(13/5)----> y=[5*17-4*13]/20
y=(85-52)/20-----> y=33/20----> y=1.65-----> y=1 65/100----> y=1 13/20
the answer is
</span><span>james have 1 13/20 ft of yarn</span>
The answer for this question is 80
Using the Fundamental Counting Theorem, it is found that:
The 2 people can arrange themselves in 40 ways.
<h3>What is the Fundamental Counting Theorem?</h3>
It is a theorem that states that if there are n things, each with
ways to be done, each thing independent of the other, the number of ways they can be done is:

With one people in the aisle and one in the normal seats, the parameters are:
n1 = 4, n2 = 7
With both in the aisle, the parameters is:
n1 = 4, n2 = 3
Hence the number of ways is:
N = 4 x 7 + 4 x 3 = 28 + 12 = 40.

You can choose from 20 students for the first student, 19 for the second, 18 for the third, ..., 14 for the seventh student.
That gives you 20 * 19 * 18 * 17 * 16 * 15 * 14.
That number would allow you to write the students in different order. Since order here does not matter, any group with the same students in any order is the same group, you need to divide by the number of way you can order 7 items. Divide by 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1
(20 * 19 * 18 * 17 * 16 * 15 * 14)/(7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1) = 77,520
Answer: 77,520
