Answer:
Yes it is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
It is 5 because you divide 2 and 10 and it is 5
So use undistributive properyt]
ab+ac=a(b+c)
so factor 24a dadn 28 to find 'a' the common factor
24=2 times 2 times 2 times 3 tiems a
28=2 times 2 times 7
common one is 2 itmes 2=4
a=4
4(2 times3 times a)+4(7)=4(6a)+4(7)=4(6a+7)
First, find out how much ribbon there is.
3 x 12 = 36
Now, see how many times you can divde that by 8.
36 can only be divided by 8 four times, and there would be 4 inches of ribbon left.
So, you would be able to make 4 bows, with 4 inches of ribbon remaining.
