Question

Demarco has a piece of fabric 6yd long. He uses a piece 3yd long. He cuts the rest into strips that are each 3\4 yd long. How many 3\4 yd long strips are there?

Answer 1

Answer: 4

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to subtract the amount of fabric used (3yd) to the total fabric that Demarco has (6yd)

6 -3 =3yd

Finally, we have to divide the result by the length of each strip piece (3/4yd)

3÷ 3/4= 4 pieces

There are 4 3/4 yd long strips.
