Melissa is making clothes for her dolls. She has 7/8 yard of fabric. Each doll shirt requires 2/7 of a yard of fabric. How many whole shirts can she make for her dolls?

She can make three shirts and will have 7/56 left.

Step-by-step explanation:

49/56-14/56=35/56 (one shirt) 35/56-14/56=21/56 (two shirts) 21/56-14/56=7/56 (three shirts)

y < -3

step-by-step explanation:

-3y - 2 > 7

-3y -2 + 2 > 7+2

-3y > 9

-3y/-3 < 9/-3   (change the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number)

y < -3
