Since a yard is 3 feet, you divide 156 by 3 and you get 52 and then you do 52 times 7/8 and you get 45 and 1/2. She can make 45 and 1/2 scarves.

7/8 of a yard is 3*7/8 or 21/8 feet.
Divide the number of feet of fabric by the number of scarves she can make
156/(21/8)= 59.42 scarves.
But she cant make half a scarf, so she can only make 59 scarves,
Hope this helps.
