can Someone help me with work too. show some work please

in this problem,, we are told that Mr Nelson needs 5 1/2 yards of fabric to make two dresses. the problem then asks us to find out how much fabric it will take to make only one of the dresses. this means that in order to find out how much fabric is needed to make only one of the two dresses,, we need to divide the total amount of fabric by two. the equation will look like the following:
5 1/2 ÷ 2
the first step to solving this is to convert the mixed number to an improper fraction
11/2 ÷ 2
now,, you can turn the 2 into a fraction and changed the sign because dividing is equivalent to multiplying with the reciprocal value.
11/2 × 1/2
you must then multiply the fractions
11/4
finally,, you need to simplify the fraction to find the answer
2 3/4 yards
since you cannot simplify any further,, the correct answer to your question is A, 2 3/4 yards.
let me know if you have any further questions
