Answer:
You pay $8 for 2
meters of ribbon
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us solve the question
∵ 1 meter of ribbon costs $3
∵ We need to find the cost of 2 meters
→ Separate the length of the ribbon to a whole number and a fraction
∵ The length of the ribbon = 2 m + m
→ Multiply each part by the cost of 1 meter
∵ The cost of 1 meter = 3 dollars
∴ The cost of the ribbon = 3 × 2 + 3 ×
∴ The cost of the ribbon = 6 + dollars
→ Change the improper fraction to a mixed number
∵ 9 ÷ 4 = 2
∴ The cost of the ribbon = 6 + 2 +
∴ The cost of the ribbon = 8 +
∴ The cost of the ribbon = 8 dollars
∴ You pay $8 for 2
meters of ribbon
