Elena has 66 yards of ribbon. 1/4 yard of ribbon to make a bow. How many bows can she make with the ribbon that she has?
I DONT KNOW WHAT YALL SAYING
66/.25 = ?
To determine how many bows Elena can make with the given amount of ribbon, we need to divide the total length of the ribbon by the amount of ribbon needed to make one bow.
Given that Elena has 66 yards of ribbon and 1/4 yard is needed for one bow, we can set up the following equation:
Total bows = Total ribbon / Amount of ribbon needed per bow
Total bows = 66 yards / (1/4) yard
To divide by a fraction, we multiply by its reciprocal. So, we can rewrite the equation as:
Total bows = 66 yards * (4/1)
Simplifying this equation, we get:
Total bows = 66 yards * 4 = 264 bows
Therefore, Elena can make 264 bows with the ribbon she has.
