Question

Michelle has a piece of yarn measuring 7 yards. How many 1-inch strips can be cut from the yarn

Answer 1

Answer:

252 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to convert 7 yds to inches

1 yd = 3 ft

so 7 yds * 3ft/yd = 21 ft

We know that 1 ft = 12 inches

so

21 ft * 12 inches/1 ft =252 inches

7 yds = 252 inches

We can cut 252 inch pieces from  the yarn

Answer 2

Answer:

252 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 feet in 1 yard. Multiply 7 yards x the 3 feet in each 1 yard.

You should now have 21 feet.

Multiply 21 feet x the 12 inches in each foot.

You should come up with 252 inches as your final product.
