First you need to figure out how many yards of ribbon you are buying. To do that divide 11 by 3. That equals 3 2/3 yards. You divided it by 3 because there are 3 feet in 1 yard.
next you need to change 3 2/3 yards into an improper fraction. Multiply the whole number 3 by the denominator that ='s 9 and it to the numerator that ='s 11 so now you have the improper fraction 11/3 that represents the number of yards of ribbon you are buying. Then multiply $1.32 * 11/3 = $14.52/3 reduced = $4.84
There are three feet of ribbon in a yard. So 11 feet is 3.66 yards. Then multiply the cost of a yard by the number of yards (1.32 times 3.66) and you get the answer: 4.83 dollars
Arrange the data in an ascending order and the median is the middle value. If the number of values is an even number, the median will be the average of the two middle numbers.49
