I am also having trouble figuring out the below:
Eva wants to make two pieces of pottery. She needs 3/5 pound of clay one piece and 7/10 pound of clay for the other piece. She has three bags of clay that weigh 4/5 pound each. How many bags of clay will Eva need to make both pieces of pottery? How many pounds of clay will she have left over?
