Answer 10

Even that is wrong, eevee. What do you get when you multiply 5.8 by ten? I learned how to do that in elementary school. Then, if that answer is how much fabric she used, and she started with 238.2 yards, how much does she have left? What's the remainder? I learned how to subtract in first or second grade.
