Question

Sandra has ribbons that are 2/6meter ,3/4meter and 4/9 meter long . She needs to use the ribbon longer than 2/3 meter to make a bow . Which length of ribbon can she use for the bow?

Answer 1

Answer: She can use the 3/4 long ribbon.

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to express the length inn decimal form, and compare:

2/6 = 2 ÷ 6 = 0.3333333 m

3/4 = 3 ÷ 4 =0.75m

4/9= 4 ÷ 9= 0.44444m

The ribbon must be longer than 2/3 meters

2/3= 2 ÷ 3 =0.66666

So, she can use the 3/4 long ribbon.

Because 0.75> 0.6666
