Turner measures 3/4 foot of ribbon for a costume.He needs 9 pieces of ribbon with that same length. Fill in the blanks to complete an equation that turner can use to find the total length of ribbon that he needs, in feet
3/4 X 9 = 27/4 = 6 3/4
Therefore, Turner needs 6 3/4 feet of ribbons for a costume.
Well then whats the equation
Its Perfect i got it thats
i don't get it
To find the total length of ribbon that Turner needs, we can use the equation:
Total length of ribbon = Length of one piece of ribbon × Number of pieces of ribbon
In this case, the length of one piece of ribbon is given as 3/4 foot. The number of pieces of ribbon needed is 9.
Substituting these values into the equation, we have:
Total length of ribbon = (3/4 foot) × 9
To multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together. Hence, the equation becomes:
Total length of ribbon = (3 × 9) / (4 × 1) foot
Simplifying further:
Total length of ribbon = 27/4 foot
So, Turner needs a total length of 27/4 foot of ribbon for his costume.
