(a) how many 15 cm of ribbon can be cut from a 3.2m long ribbon
(b) how long is the remaining peice

Respuesta :

Answer:

A = 21

B = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1 meter = 100 centimeters

This means that she has 320cm of ribbon. Now you need to divide 320 by 15

320/15 = 21.3333333333

So to check your work you could multiply 15 by 21

15 x 21 = 315

This answer is less than 320 so you now know that Nabiha can cut 21 pieces of ribbon that are 15cm long. You also know that the remaining piece is 320 - 315 = 5.

Please award me brainiest! Hope this helps!
