Question

5. A school club needs 300 feet of rope for a project. They have the amounts of rope
listed below.
• 2 pieces of rope that are each 16 yards in length
• 1 piece of rope that is 12.5 yards in length
• 1 piece of rope that is 123.25 feet in length
How much additional rope, in feet, does the school club need in order to have
enough rope for their project?
PLEASE HELP ME!

Answer 1

Answer:

43.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert all the rope to feet.

16 yards = 48 feet

12.5 yards = 37.5 feet

Subtract the lengths from the total to find out how much more is needed.

300 - 48 - 48 - 37.5 - 123.25 =  43.25
