Answer:

24 and the estimate for the Iready answer choices is at least 20

Explanation:

First you do 85 divided 35 without the decimal to make it easier then you add the decimal to get 3.5 and 85 divided by 3.5 would be 24.3

24 cuts of ribbon. You will need to round down, because there is a small piece of extra rope.
