Question

Yao bought 3 feet of blue ribbon and

24 inches of red ribbon. The ribbon costs
$2.00 per foot. What is the total cost of
the ribbon?

Answer 1

It would've costed $8 to buy these ribbons.

Explanation:

Given:

• 3 feet of blue ribbon = 36 inches of blue ribbons
• 2 feet of red ribbon = 24 inches of red ribbons\
• 1 foot of ribbon = $2

(3 + 2) x 2 = Total cost

=> (5) x 2

= $10

Therefore, it would've costed $10 to buy these ribbons.

Hoped this helped.
