Answer 1

Answer:

The length of 1 bow is 30cm.

The length of 4 bow is 120cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

length of the ribbon = 148cm

length of the ribbon = 148cmNumber of bows she made = 4

length of the ribbon = 148cmNumber of bows she made = 4Leftover ribbon = 28cm

length of the ribbon = 148cmNumber of bows she made = 4Leftover ribbon = 28cmLet the length of 1 bow be x

length of the ribbon = 148cmNumber of bows she made = 4Leftover ribbon = 28cmLet the length of 1 bow be xso, 4x + 28 = 148

length of the ribbon = 148cmNumber of bows she made = 4Leftover ribbon = 28cmLet the length of 1 bow be xso, 4x + 28 = 148 4x = 148 - 28

length of the ribbon = 148cmNumber of bows she made = 4Leftover ribbon = 28cmLet the length of 1 bow be xso, 4x + 28 = 148 4x = 148 - 28 4x = 120

length of the ribbon = 148cmNumber of bows she made = 4Leftover ribbon = 28cmLet the length of 1 bow be xso, 4x + 28 = 148 4x = 148 - 28 4x = 120 x= 120/4

length of the ribbon = 148cmNumber of bows she made = 4Leftover ribbon = 28cmLet the length of 1 bow be xso, 4x + 28 = 148 4x = 148 - 28 4x = 120 x= 120/4 x = 30

hence, The length of 1 bow is 30cm.

The length of 1 bow is 30cm.The length of 4 bow = 4×30

=120cm
