Question

janice has 27 feet of ribbon, How many more feet does she need to buy so that she will have 82 feet of ribbon

Answer 1

55 feet

Explanation:

This is a subtraction problem.

You need to find the difference between what Janice has (27feet) and what she would like to have (82feet)

82 - 27

= 55

Janice needs 55 feet of ribbon. This amount along with the 27 feet she already has will give her a total of 82 feet of ribbon.

55 + 27 = 82
