Mia is making costumes for a play. each costume needs 3 7/9 yards of fabric. if mia is making 6 costumes, how much fabric does she need?

If she is making 6 costumes that need 3 7/9 yards each, the equation would be 6 x 3 7/9.

The answer to that equation would be 22 2/3.

How to get the
3 x 6 = 18
7 x 6 = 42 (the seven is from the 7/9)
42/9 = 4 2/3

then add the eight teen and the 4 2/3 and you get 22 2/3.

Add the cents that add the left overs to get the first number
