Question

Lisha is making headbands using ribbon she would like to make 12 headbands each one requires 15.5 inches of ribbon she estimates that she will need to buy 160 inches ribbon is reasonable

Answer 1

The answer isnt reasonable because if you multiply 12 by 15.5 you will get 186 inches which isnt reasonable. The estimate of 186 would be 190 not 160. I hope this helped :)

Answer 2

Explanation:

Lisha is making headbands using ribbon.

each one requires 15.5 inches of ribbon

For 12 headbands Lisha need to buy ribbon = 15.5 × 12

= 186 inches

Therefore, Lisha will need to buy 186 inches ribbon.

160 inches ribbon is not sufficient to make 12 headbands. She will need to buy 186 inches or more.
