If she used all of her yarn, she'd have 24 pieces. If she wanted 1.25 left, she'd have ten less because 24 • .125 = 8, and 1/4 of eight = 2, and 2 + 8 = 10.

So she'd have 14 pieces.

Peter is making an "X marks the spot" flag for a treasure hunt. The flag is made of a square white flag with sides of 12 centime
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

34 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual question is How many inches of ribbon Peter will need to make the "X".

Using the Pythagorean theorem, the length of the diagonal of a square with 12 cm sides is:

d^2=12^2+12^2\\d=\sqrt{288}\\ d=16.97\ cm

Since the "X" requires two diagonals, the length of ribbon required is:

L=2*16.97\\L=34\ cm

The length required, rounded to the nearest centimeter, is 34 cm.
