You're given the conversion formula of 1 yard = 3 feet and 1 foot = 12 inches so let's use that.
For red you're given three yards so because 1 yard = 3 feet, then you have
3 feet + 3 feet + 3 feet = 9 feet ( or 3ft * 3)
Now, to get inches, you multiply 9 by 12 to get 108 inches.
Since each bow requires 6 inches of ribbon you divide 108 by 6.
- Number of red bows: 18
- Inches of ribbon: 108
Yellow
Given: 54 inches
to convert to feet, you divide by 12 : 54/12 = 4.5 and to find yards you divide by 3: 4.5/3 = 1.5
to find the number of bows you divide 54 by 6: 9 bows
-Number of yellow bows: 9
-Yards of yellow ribbon: 1.5
Blue
Given: 24 bows
Because there's 6 inches for every bow 24*6 = 144 inches of ribbon
Convert to yards: 144/12 = 12 feet / 3 ft = 4 yards
-Inches of blue ribbon:144
-Yards of blue ribbon: 4

x=525 envelopes
This question basically asks for the LCM of 3 and 5, which is 3 x 5 =15
This is the answer: 15
Check : The first rectangle had 1/3 shaded; ( one in every three parts)
So for 15 parts altogether, 5 would be shaded ( 1/3 = 5/15)
The second rectangle had 2/5 shaded ( two for every five parts)
So for 15 parts altogether, 6 would be shaded (2/5 = 6/15)
