a. 2 1/4 yd
b. 2 1/3 yd
c. 3 yd
d .3 1/3 yd

2 1/3 yds

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to subtract 1 1/6 yds from 3 1/2 yds to answer this question.

The LCD is 6:

3 1/2 - 1 1/6 becomes 3 3/6 - 1 1/6.  This results in 2 2/6, or 2 1/3, yds

Jim must purchase 2 1/3 yds more of burlap.

For this case we must subtract the amounts to know how many yards of burlap Jim should buy:

We subtract the amounts:

We convert to a mixed number:

Option B

the answer would be 484

step-by-step explanation:

just multiply 0.484 times 1,000 (formula)
