Tyler has 2 7/16 years of fabric. He used 3/4 yard to make a vest. About how much fabric did he have left?

1 11/16

Step-by-step explanation:

If Tunde has 2 7/16 yards of fabric and used 3/4 of the fabric, the amount of fabric left can be gotten by taken the difference between the original value of the fabric from the fraction used.

Given total fraction of fabric = 2 7/16

Amount used = 3/4

Fraction of fabric left = 2 7/16 - 3/4

Fraction of fabric left = 39/16 - 3/4

Fraction of fabric left = (39-12) / 16

Fraction of fabric left = 27/16

Converting 27/16 to mixed fraction gives 1 11/16

Therefore 1 11/16 of fabric is left.

27 yards of fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you can't do anything with unlike denominators, you'd need to convert the 3/4 into x/16 by multiplying by 4. (4 x 4 = 16)

So 3x4 = 12, 4x4 = 16, resulting in 12/16.

Next, you'd take the 2 wholes and multiply it by 16 to get 32, then add the 7 to get 39/16.

Lastly, you'd subtract the 12/16 from the 39/16 and end up with 27 yards of fabric.
