Question

Franklin needs 1.25 meters of ribbon to wrap each gift. He has a spool of ribbon that contains 25 feet of ribbon. One meter is equivalent to approximately 3 feet. How many gifts of the same dimension can he wrap using the spool of ribbon?

Answer 1

6

Explanation:

convert 1.25 meters to feet

1 meter = 3 feet

1.25 meters = 1.25 x 3 = 3.75 feet

Number of gifts he can warp = 25 feet / 3.75 = 6.6
