Question

Wyatt makes and sells rope doormats. He uses 200 feet of rope for each doormat. He wants to make 25 doormats.

Which expression shows a correct way to find how many yards of rope he needs?

1 yard = 3 feet
Group of answer choices

200×25×3

200×25÷3

200÷25×3

200÷25÷3

Answer 1

It’s 200x25x3 because he is using 200 feet of rope for each mat and he wants to make 25 of them so that means that is a multiply.Then each yard is 3 feet witch means that it’s multiplying again.

Answer 2

200x25(divided)3

That’s because when you find out 200x25 (5000) it will still be in feet and not yards. 1 yard is 3 ft so you would divide your 5000 feet by 3 to change it to yards!
