Answer:
Yes, she can make 2 scarves of length \(\frac{2}{3}\) yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jessica used \(\frac{2}{3}\) yard of fabric to make a scarf.
Now she has a fabric of length \(1\frac{3}{4}\) yards = \(\frac{7}{4}\) yards.
We have to find whether she can make 2 scarves or not.
∵ \(\frac{2}{3}\) yards fabric is used to make scarf = 1
∴ 1 yard fabric is used to make scarf = \(\frac{1}{\frac{2}{3}}\) = \(\frac{3}{2}\)
∴ \(\frac{7}{4}\) yard fabric is used to make scarf = \(\frac{3}{2}\) × \(\frac{7}{4}\)
\(\frac{21}{8}\) ≈ \(2\frac{5}{8}\)
Now we can say that she can make 2 scarves of length \(\frac{2}{3}\) yards.
