To find the answer, we need to multiply the amount of ribbon Betty had by the fraction of it she used.

Step 1: Convert the fractions to a common denominator.
The denominators of the fractions are 7 and 6, respectively. To find a common denominator, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of 7 and 6, which is 42.

Step 2: Rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.
1/7 becomes 6/42 (multiply the numerator and denominator of 1/7 by 6)
1/6 becomes 7/42 (multiply the numerator and denominator of 1/6 by 7)

Step 3: Multiply the fractions.
Multiply the numerators of 6/42 and 7/42: 6 * 7 = 42.
Multiply the denominators of 6/42 and 7/42: 42 * 42 = 1764.

Step 4: Simplify the fraction (if necessary).
The product of 6/42 and 7/42 is 42/1764. Since both the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 42, we can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 42.
42 ÷ 42 = 1, and 1764 ÷ 42 = 42.
Therefore, the simplified fraction is 1/42.

Step 5: Calculate the amount of ribbon Betty used.
Betty had 1/7 yard of ribbon, which is equivalent to 1/42 yards (as we found in Step 4).
Now, we can multiply the amount of ribbon Betty had by the fraction she used:
1/42 * 1 = 1/42 yards.

So, Betty used 1/42 yards of ribbon.
