<u>Sara can make two bows.</u> To get this answer, you take 10 1/2 feet and convert it to yards. 3 feet are 1 yard, or 1 feet is 0.333 yards. Consequently, 10 1/2 or 10.5 feet  are 3.5 yards (10.5 x 0.333) and Sara has 3.5 yards of ribbon. If each bow requires 1 3/4 or 1.75 yards, Sara can make two bows (3.5 / 1.75).

In which statement is the transition used correctly?
Alinara [238K]

The second alternative is correct (B).

"Gold in California ignited interest in a railroad to reach the West. However, Americans disagreed on where to build the railroad."

The use of the conjunction "however" in this context connects the two sentences with a contraposition, giving the exact meaning for the continuity of the text. In this way, it became clear that there was a need to build a railroad, but there was no unity among Americans about where to build the railroad.
