Question

Jeanne makes hair bows to sell at the craft fair. Each bow requires 1.5 yards of ribbon.

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 378 foot

b) 3780¢

c)$10^3\times 2^1\times 3^3\times 7^1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Ribbon required to make 1 bow = 1.5 yards

We know that 1 yard = 3 foot

a) Number of bows Jeanne wants to make = 84

Foot of ribbon required to make 84 bows

= Number of bows Jeanne wants to make × Ribbon required to male 1 bow

= 84 × 1.5 yards

= 126 × 3 foot = 378 foot

Thus, Jeanne requires 378 foot of ribbon to make 84 bows.

b) Cost of ribbon = 10¢ per foot

Total money required to buy ribbon

= Cost of ribbon × Amount of ribbon required in foot

= 10 × 378

= 3780.00¢

c) Number of bows manufacture wants to make = 84 × 1000

= 84,000 bows

Amount of ribbon required to make bows

= 1000 × Amount of ribbon required to make 84 bows

=  1,000 × 378 = 378000 foot

To write it in exponential form:

$378000 = 10^3\times 2^1\times 3^3\times 7^1$
