Question

Sydney needs 70cm of feinge for each scarf she makes. How many scarves can she make if she has 6 meters of fringe?

Answer 1

8

Explanation:

First Step

Convert meters to centimeters

For every meter there are 100 (centi)meters

6 meters ×100=600 cm

Second Step

Find how many scarves can be made

We have 600 cm of fringe

It takes 70 cm to make 1 scarf

Divide 70 into 600

600÷70=8.571

Rounding down we get 8
