Question

There are 100m of ribbon. 1 1/2m are needed to make a bouquet. How man can be made? How many m of ribbon are left over ?

Answer 1

Answer:

66 can be made

1m left

Step-by-step explanation:

$100 \div 1.5 = 66.667(5s.f.)$

Ribbons that can be made= 66

$66 \times 1.5 = 99m$

length used= 99m

length remaining= 100m- 99m= 1m
