Jack is getting balloons for his uncle's birthday party. He wants each balloon string to be 6 feet long. At the party store, str
ing is sold by the yard. If Jack wants to get 55 balloons, how many yards of string will he need? 1 foot = 1 3 yard
1 answer:
Answer:
110 yards of string
Step-by-step explanation:
Converting the feet of the string of 1 balloon to yard
1 foot = 1/3 yard
6 feet = x
x = 6 × 1/3 yard
x = 2 yard
Hence 1 balloon uses 2 yard of string
Since:
1 balloon = 2 yard of string
55 ballons = x
x = 55 × 2 yard of string
x = 110 yards of string
Hence, for 55 balloons he would need 110 yards of string.
