Question

John had 2 1/4 meter of felt and used only 3/12 of that for a costume. How many meters of felt did he use?​

Answer 1

Answer: 0.5625 m

Explanation:

2.25/12 *3=0.5625

Answer 2

John used 0.5625 m or 56.25 cm of felt ( more than half metre less than one metre)

Explanation:

3/12 of 2 1/4 m

= 3/12 of 9/4

= 3/12* 9/4

= 27/48

= 0.56 25m *100= 56.25 cm
