Question

PLEASE HELP!!! VERY EASY MATH EXPLINATION NEEDED!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

So lets go voer what we know:

There are 6 pieces of ribbon.

Each piece of ribbon is 1 yard long.

We need 1/3 of each ribbon(1/3 yard).

To find this, lets take our 6 pieces of ribbbon, and break them into 3 seperate pieces.

This is because we need ribbons that are 1/3 of a yard. 3 ribbons would make up a single yard.

So:

The 6 yards of ribbon x 3 ribbons that make up 1 yard

6*3

=

18

I hope this makes more sense, and helps you understand better. I can try to explain in a different way if this still doesn't make sense.

I hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

Answer:

It’s D, 18 cuts

Step-by-step explanation:

She cut a 6 yard long ribbon into 1/3 yard pieces so you would have to divide to get the answer and the steps to dividing is

Stay the same, change the sign, flip it
so the 6 would stay the same, you would change the division sign to multiplication because division is the opposite of multiplication, and you would flip the 1/3 into 3/1 so

6 x 3/1 would be 18/1 which is just 18
