Answer:

$9.98

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to calculate the total fabric that Calista has

= 2 1/2 + 1 3/4

= 5/2 + 7/4

= 17/4

The next step is to calculate the fabric that she needs

= 17/4-3

= 5/4

If each yard of fabric costs $7.98 then the amount needed can be calculated as follows

= 7.98 × 5/4

= 7.98 × 1.25

= 9.975

= $9.98

Hence Kalista needs $9.98
