Question

Mai got a prepaid debit card with 30 on it. For her first purchase with the card, she bought some bulk ribbon at a craft store. The price of the ribbon was 23 cents per yard. If after that purchase there was 27.01 left on the card, how many yards of ribbon did Mai buy?

Answer 1

The answer I got was 13.

Explanation:

I first did 30-27.01 to get 2.99.

I then divided 2.99 by 0.23 or 2.99/0.23 to get 13.

Hope this helped any!
