Answer:
29 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
40 - 10 1/3
Convert the mixed numbers to improper fraction
= 40 - 31/3
Simplifying the above expression,
= 120 - 31 /3
= 89/3
= 29 2/3 carpet yards
Thus from total of 40 yards, 29 2/3 yards of carpet were sold.
If half of 29 2/3 were green carpets sold, thus, 29 2/3 divided by 2 equals 14.83 feet of green carpet were sold.
