Mai-li has 6 1/3 yd of material. her new skirt will take 2 1/3 yd. how much material will she have left after the skirt is made?

a. 8 yd
b. 8 2/3 yd
c. 4 yd
d. 12 2/3

C. 4 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

6 1/3 and 2 1/3 are mixed numbers because they are a combination of a whole number and a fraction. They could be represented like:

6 1/3 = 6 + 1/3

2 1/3 = 2 + 1/3

To substact them, we need to convert the integer into a fraction. Since 6 = 6/1, we can multiply the numerator a denominator by 3 to get an equivalent fraction. We will do the same with 2 1/3.

6 + 1/3 = 6/1 + 1/3 = 6/1 × (3/3) + 1/3 = 18/3 + 1/3 = 19/3

2 + 1/3 = 2/1 + 1/3 = 2/1 × (3/3) + 1/3 = 6/3 + 1/3 = 7/3

The remaining material will be:

19/3 - 7/3 = 12/3 = 4

There will be 4 yd left.

step-by-step explanation:

(s)he  is right it would be 5.5% because it is smaller than 15.5% or anything smaller than 15.5% in general

the thermometer is precise but not accurate
