Answer:

63/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sails yard in 8 3/4 minutes= X

7 1/2 yards sails= 4 1/6 minutes

X = 8 3/4 minutes

Let us Convert the fraction to improper fraction

4 1/6 minutes= 25/6 minutes

8 3/4 minutes= 35/4 minutes

7 1/2 yards sails= 15/2 sails yard

Then

15/2 yards sails= 25/6 minutes

X = 35/4 minutes

If we cross multiply

25/6 X = 15/2 × 35/4

25/6 X =525/8

6 × 525= (25× 8)X

3150= 200X

X= 3150/200

X=63/4
