Answer:

For 5 bows, 10/3 yards of ribbon is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

2/3 yards = 1 bow

Work:

2/3 yards = 1 bow
=> 2/3 x 5 yards = 5 bows
=> 10/3 yards = 5 bows

Hence, for 5 bows, 10/3 yards of ribbon is required.

Hey!

Okay, to solve this problem, we'd first have to multiply both sides by two. The reason we do this is to get $y$ on its own.

Original Equation : 
$\frac{y}{2}$ < $-3$

New Equation {Changed by Multiplying 2 on Both Sides} :
$\frac{2y}{2}$ < $2$ ( $-3$ )

And we simplify the equation to get our answer.

Old Equation :
$\frac{2y}{2}$ < $2$ ( $-3$ )

New Equation {Changed by Simplification} :
y < -6

So, the equation $\frac{y}{2}$ < -3 simplified is y < -6.

Hope this helps!
