    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are 3 feet in a yard, so 420 feet is 420/3 = 140 yards.

    The total number of yards Edith needs is ...

    65 yd + 580 yd = 645 yd

    So, the total number of balls of yarn Edith needs is ...

    (645 yd) / (140 yd/ball) ≈ 4.61 balls

    Edith needs to buy 5 balls of yarn to make her projects.
