Answer:

She will need to purchase 16 rolls of ribbon

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Express the total length of ribbon

Use the expression below;

T=R×N

where;

T=total length of ribbon Ruby has

R=length per roll

N=number of rolls

In our case;

T=120 meters, but since 1 meter=3.28084 feet

T=(120×3.28084)=393.7008 feet

R=25 feet

N=n

replacing;

393.7008 =25×n

n=393.7008/25

n=15.748 rounded up=16

She will need to purchase 16 rolls of ribbon

What is √101.6064 in to 1 decimal place and in standard form?​<br>NEED ASAP
Dimas [21]

Note that

10² = 100

0.08² = 0.0064

and

101.6064 = 100 + 1.6 + 0.0064

It also happens that

1.6 = 2 • 10 • 0.08

which means

101.6064 = 100 + 1.6 + 0.0064

101.6064 = 10² + 2 • 10 • 0.08 + 0.08²

101.6064 = (10 + 0.08)²

101.6064 = 10.08²

which means

√101.6064 = 10.08

which, to one decimal place, is approximately 10.1.

What is 2 1//2 divided by 5/12?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

2 1/2 divided by 5/12 is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you convert 2 1/2 into an improper fraction which is 5/2. You then flip 5/12 into 12/5 because when you're doing fraction division, you always flip the divisor to it's reciprocal. You then multiply 5/2 x 12/5. You then get 60/10 which can be simplified to 6. Hope this helps!
