Olivia has 1 1/5 yards of fabric. she uses 5/8 of the fabric to make a shirt. How much fabric did she use?

Answered by maham237 @



Make 1 1/5 into improper fraction which is 6/5 and then find the common denominator 6/5 and 5/8.
Common denominator is 40. Multiply 8 by 6 and 8 by 5 so it would become 48/40. Do the same with 5/8 except multiply by 5 which would be 25/40. Subtract 48/40 and 25/40 which is.....

23/40
