To find how much purple yarn Olivia will use for the blanket, we need to know 1/6 of 3 2/25 yards.
To find 1/6 of a number, we multiply that number by 1/6.
3 2/25 yards * 1/6 = 16/25 yards.
So, Olivia will use 16/25 yards of purple yarn for the blanket.

Apologies for the earlier mistake. Let's correct it.
Olivia has 3 2/25 yards of purple yarn, and she decided to use only 1/6 of it.
To find 1/6 of the purple yarn, we multiply it by 1/6:
3 2/25 yards * 1/6 = (6/6) * (3 2/25) * (1/6)
First, let's convert the mixed number 3 2/25 to an improper fraction:
3 2/25 = (3 * 25 + 2)/25 = 77/25
Now we can continue with the calculation:
(6/6) * (77/25) * (1/6) = (6 * 77)/(6 * 25) * 1/6 = 462/150 = 154/50 = 3 4/50
Therefore, Olivia will use 3 4/50 yards of purple yarn for the blanket.

Apologies for the confusion. You are correct.
To calculate 3 2/25 yards * 1/6, we can first convert the mixed number 3 2/25 to an improper fraction:
3 2/25 = (3 * 25 + 2)/25 = 77/25
Now we can multiply the fractions:
77/25 * 1/6 = (77 * 1)/(25 * 6) = 77/150
Therefore, Olivia will use 77/150 yards of purple yarn for the blanket.
