Question

De un listón que compró Constanza para decorar su salón que medía tres metros y un tercio grato ocho sextos que cantidad de listón le quedó

Answer 1

The measure of ribbons that Constanza had after using the eight sixths would be 2 meters.

How to find the ribbon length left ?

Constanza bought a ribbon that measured 3 and 1/3 meters, which can be written as an improper fraction:

= 3 + 1/3

= 10/3 meters

She used 8/6 of the ribbon which is:

= (8/6) ÷ (2/2)

= 4/3

Calculate how much ribbon she had left:

Remaining Ribbon = Total Ribbon - Used Ribbon

Remaining Ribbon = (10/3) meters - (4/3) meters

Remaining Ribbon = (10/3 - 4/3) meters

Remaining Ribbon = (6/3) meters

Now, simplify 6/3:

Remaining Ribbon = 2 meters

The full question is:

Of a ribbon that Constanza bought to decorate her living room that measured three and a third meters. She uses eight sixths. How much ribbon she had left

Answer 2

1.33 meters

Explanation:

La cinta mide 3 metros de largo. Cuando Constanza utilizó la cinta ocho por sexta, la cinta que le queda será una por tres. La ecuación será la siguiente:

3 meters - 1/3 meters - 8 / 6 meters

4 / 3 meters = 1.33 meters.
