Answer:
2.07 feet more
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Amount needed to make pants = [tex]2\dfrac{1}{11}=\dfrac{23}{11}\ \text{feet}[/tex]
Amount needed to make rug = [tex]4\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{25}{6}\ \text{feet}[/tex]
We need to find how much more fabric is needed to make a rug versus pants. It can be solved as follows :
[tex]x=\dfrac{25}{6}-\dfrac{23}{11}\\\\x=2.07\ \text{feet}[/tex]
So, 2.07 feet more fabric is needed to make a rug versus pants.
