Question

You have 15 yards of ribbon for your gift boxes. each box gets the same amount of ribbon. How much ribbon will each box get

Answer 1

How many boxes do you have?

Answer 2

20

Answer 3

i think the answer is 5 feet

Answer 4

Ahh! Thanks.

Divide 15 yards by 20 boxes.

15 / 20 = 0.75 = 3/4 yard for each box.

Answer 5

1 yard = 3 feet = 36 inches

3/4 yard = (3/4) * 36 = 27 inches = 2 feet and 3 inches

Let's try your answer:

5 feet * 20 = 100 feet = 33.3 yards. Five feet is too much. You don't have that much ribbon.

Answer 6

what i ended up getting is 2.25 feet and 0.75 yards

Answer 7

That's right.

Answer 8

3/4 ribbon.

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To find out how much ribbon each box will get, we need to divide the total length of ribbon (15 yards) by the number of boxes.

Let's say you have "n" number of gift boxes.

The amount of ribbon each box will get can be calculated using the formula:

Ribbon per box = Total length of ribbon / Number of boxes

In this case, the total length of ribbon is 15 yards and since each box gets the same amount of ribbon, we can write this as:

Ribbon per box = 15 yards / n boxes

To get the specific amount of ribbon each box will receive, you will need to provide the number of boxes (the value of "n").
