I FOUND YOUR COMPLETE QUESTION IN OTHER SOURCES.
SEE ATTACHED IMAGE.
For this case what you need to know is how much tape Alex needs.
We have then:
"He needs 7 sections of ribbon with a length of 3/4 yard"
In other words:
(7) * (3/4) = 5.25 yards.
Therefore, the amount of tape that will be left over will be:
30.2-5.25 = 24.95 yards.
Answer:
after Alex cuts the 7 pieces will remain 24.95 yards of ribbon
