Yanni is making curtains for his living room. He bought a piece of fabric that was 5/23/ yards by 9/1/3 yards. If he spent $ 634/2/3 on the fabric, what was the cost per square yard?

Your mixed numerals are hard to understand.
I assume it's 5 2/3 yd by 9 1/3 yd,
$634 2/3.

Area = (5 2/3 yd)(9 1/3 yd)
Area = (17/3 yd)(28/3 yd)
Area = 476/9 yd^2

Cost per sq yd = ($634 2/3)(476/9 yd^2) = $12/yd^2

The price was $12 per square yard.
