Question

Help SOS Stevie needed twine for the gifts she was wrapping for a family party.

lengths of Stevie’s twine are shown on the line plot below. How many feet of twine does Stevie have total?

Answer 1

Your answer would be:

57.75 or 57 3/4

(I will show how many of each length of twine that is on the graph)

Point 2 1/4:

2

Point 2 3/4:

4

Point 3:

1

Point 3 1/2:

2

Point 3 3/4:

3

Point 4:

1

Point 4 1/4:

4

We can show how much length in total Stevie used with the following equation:

(2 1/4 x 2) + (2 3/4 x 4) + ( 3 x 1 ) + ( 3 1/2 x 2 ) + (3 3/4 x 3 ) + (4 x 1 ) + (4 1/4 x 4)

Each smaller equation in paraphrases shows how much of each length of twine at each point with x's on the number line. Altogether it would equal 57.75 or 57 3/4.
