Laura bought 2 yards of ribbon. She cut off a piece of ribbon that is 58 inches long to wrap a package. How much ribbon does she have left? (1 yard = 26 inches)

Answer:14 inches
(There is 36 inches in a yard not 26)
I yard=36 inches so you double it to get both of the yards
36x2=72
Then you minus 58
72-58=14
Hope this helps!
