Question

a spool holds 6.75 meters and a craft club buys 21 spools. what is the total cost if the ribbons costs 2 dollars per meter?

Answer 1

● To do this, you need to multiply 6.75 by 21 to find out how many meters are in all. 6.75×21 is 141.75

● Next you multiply 141.75 by 2 to see how much it costs which is 283.5

● Since we're dealing with money, it would have two place values so we add a zero and we get $283.50
