Question

Ginny had 1 4/5 yards of green ribbon and 1 2/3 yards of yellow ribbon. Did she have enough ribbon to put around a hat that needed 3 yard of ribbon? Explain your answer.

I need help on the explaining part. I said no. Thank You for your help.

Add:
1 4/5 + 1 2/3
1 12/15 + 1 10/15 = 2 22/15 = 3 7/15 yards

Thank You so much for your help. Have a great day!
Ms. Sue
You're very welcome. And I hope you have a wonderful day, too.
