The number of scrapbooks that can be decorated by one spool of ribbon is required.

14 scrapbooks can be decorated by one spool of ribbon.

1 scrapbook requires 1/16 yards of ribbon

\(1\ \text{scrapbook}=\dfrac{1}{16}\ \text{yard of ribbon}\)

\(1\ \text{yard}=16\ \text{scrapbooks}\)

1 spool contains 7/8 yard of ribbon

\(\dfrac{7}{8}\ \text{yard}=\dfrac{7}{8}\times 16=14\ \text{scrapbooks}\)

If all the ribbon is used in 1 spool of ribbon 14 scrapbooks can be decorated.
