Question

a fabric store cut 2,160 inches of ribbon into 12 pieces. how many yards long was each piece?

Answer 1

2160 inches into 12 pieces.

12 pieces = 2160 inches.

1 piece = 2160 / 12 = 180 inches.

But 12 inches = 1 foot, 3 feet = 1yard

3*12 = 36 inches = 1yard.


36 inches = 1yard.

180 inches =  180/36 = 5 yards.

Each piece was 5 yards long.
