Answer:
a) Lindsey has 5 yards of fabric left
b) Lindsey can make one more pillow and one more placemat, and have 0 fabric left
Step-by-step explanation:
Linday starts with 27 yards of fabric, but has to get rid of some for each item made. If she makes 2 of everything, it would be 6 + 6 + 3 + 3 + 2 + 2 yards of fabric used, or 22 yards. That means that to find the remaining fabric left, the equation is 27 - 22 = 5 so Lindsay will have 5 yards left
If lindsay wanted to, she could make a pillow and a placemat, which is 3 + 2, or 5. That means Lindsay will have used all her fabric
