Answer: 10 ornaments
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that students are making ornaments and each takes 1/4 of a piece of Bristol board. We are further told that they go to the cupboard and find 2 1/2 pieces of Bristol board.
The number of ornaments that they make will be gotten by dividing 2 1/2 by 1/4. This will be:
= 2 1/2 ÷ 1/4
= 5/2 ÷ 1/4
= 5/2 × 4/1
= 10
They can make 10 ornaments
