Answer:
he can cut 60 strips or ribbon
Step-by-step explanation:
The dressmaker has 720 inches of ribbon
from each roll of ribbon, he can make 6 12-inch pieces or ribbon
she has 10 rolls
so 6(strips per roll) x 10(amount of rolls) = 60 strips :)
-9 is a negative number, so plus 25, it would be 16. The minus sign and the negative sign of -10 cancel out, so it is plus 10, ending up with 26. Finally, the + and - becomes negative (positive times negative equals negative), so it is -6 and you’ll end up with a final answer of 20.
