The number of Chrissy's ribbon which are neither purple nor green is 1 5/8 yards

How to calculate Chrissy's ribbon which are neither purple nor green?

  • Purple ribbon = 3/8 yards
  • Green ribbon = 1 yard
  • Total yards of ribbon = 3 yards

Ribbon which is neither purple nor green = Total - (purple + green)

= 3 - (3/8 + 1)

= 3 - (1 3/8)

= 3 - 11/8

= (24-11) / 8

= 13/8

= 1 5/8 yards.
