Please explain to me im confused .thank you i want to understand it.

2 friends are making puppets with blue front and black backs. Each front takes 7/8 yards of cloth., and each back takes 1 and 1/4 yards. They have 4 and 2/3 yards of blue cloth and 5 and 7/8 yards of black cloth. How many puppets can they make.

Should i add the total yards and divide each ?

fronts ... (14/3) / (7/8) = ?

backs ... (47/8) / (5/4) = ?

find the number of fronts and backs
... you need one of each for each puppet
