Tina buys 3 7/8 yards of material at the fabric store. She uses it to make a skirt. Afterward, she has 1 3/8 yards of the fabric leftover. How many yards of material did Tina use?
You would subtract. 3 abd 7/8 minus 1 and 3/8 equals 2 and 4/8. If you simplifie it you would get 2 and 1/2. Your answer would be 2 and 4/8 or 2 and 1/2
