Question

Billy has already knit 23 centimeters of scarf, and can knit 1 centimeter each night. How many nights will Carey have to spend knitting in order to knit a total of 36 centimeters of scarf?

Answer 1

13 nights

Explanation:

To figure this out you first need to find out how many more centimeters to get to 36

36cm-23cm= 13 cm

If he needs to knit 13 more centimeters and he can knit 1 centimeter each night it would take him a total of 13 nights in order to knit a total of 36 centimeter scarf
