Answer:
=10229 yards = 102 yards and 8 inches
Explanation:
When working out word problems, first decide on what operation(s) you need to do.
Each of 1,000 ribbons needs to be 3.68 inches.
The total length of ribbon required will be a multiplication.
3.68×1000=3,680 inches
However, this is not practical, inches is too small a unit, so convert to a larger one. 12 inches = 1 foot
3680÷12=30623 feet.
Again this is not practical. Convert to a larger unit, yards:
3 feet = 1 yard.
30623÷3=10229 yards.
We could have done one calculation:
1 yard = 36 inches.
368036=102836 yards
=10229 yards
=10229 yards = 102 yards and 8 inches
