Question

Teresa got a prepaid debit card with $30 on it. For her first purchase with the card, she bought some bulk ribbon at a craft store. The price of the ribbon was 18
cents per yard. If after that purchase there was $25.68 left on the card, how many yards of ribbon did Teresa buy?

Answer 1

Price used=30-25.68=4.32

• Per yard price=0.18$

Now

No of yards

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{4.32}{0.18}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 24yards$
