Question

Scott has a rope 8 metres long. He says, “I need 9 pieces each 0.89 metres long.’’ Will Scott have enough ribbon?

A. Yes B. No

Answer 1

the answer is NO

Explanation:

0.89 x 889 = 8.01

Therefore, he is 1cm short

Answer 2

B

Explanation:

How did it go from "rope" to "ribbon", therefore, the statement is incorrect. This is a man-made equation that clearly has a mistake. If it was to say, "Will Scott have enough rope?" then the answer will be "YES"
