A merchant sold 7 5/7 meters of cloth to a customer. If it was cut from a bolt that contained 18 2/7 meters, how long is the remaining cloth in the bolt?

We just subtract 7 5/7 from 1[tex]18 \frac{2}{7}- 7\frac{5}{7} = \frac{128-54}{7} = \frac{74}{7} =10 \frac{4}{7} m[/tex]8 2/7.

Change to improper fraction:
[tex]7 \frac{5}{7}=\frac{54}{7}[/tex]
[tex]18 \frac{2}{7}=\frac{128}{7}[/tex]

Subtract fractions:
[tex]\frac{128}{7}-\frac{54}{7}=\frac{74}{7}[/tex]

Convert to mixed fraction
[tex]10\frac{4}{7}[/tex]

Hope this helps =)
