To find out how much ribbon each gift box will get, you need to divide the total amount of ribbon (15 yards) by the number of gift boxes (20).
The formula for finding the amount of ribbon per gift box is:
Amount of Ribbon per Gift Box = Total Amount of Ribbon / Number of Gift Boxes
So, let's plug in the values:
Amount of Ribbon per Gift Box = 15 yards / 20 gift boxes
To calculate this, divide 15 by 20:
15 / 20 = 0.75 yards
Therefore, each of your 20 gift boxes will get 0.75 yards of ribbon.
