A care care company sells 45in. Upholstery fabric for car restoration. Art bought 7 1/4 yd and 12 9/10 yd for two car projects. How many yards did art buy?

Answer: the number of yards that art bought is 20 3/20 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Art bought 7 1/4 yd and 12 9/10 yd for two car projects. We would convert both measurements from mixed fraction to improper fraction before adding.

Converting 7 1/4 yd to improper fraction, it becomes 29/4

Converting 12 9/10 yd to improper fraction, it becomes 129/10 yd

Adding both measurements, it becomes

29/4 + 129/10 = (145 + 258) / 20 = 403/20yds

Converting to mixed fraction, it becomes

20 3/20 yards
