Jeanne makes hair bows to sell at the craft fair.  Each bow requires 1.5 yards of ribbon.At the fabric store, ribbon is sold by the foot.  If Jeanne wants to make 84 bows, how many feet of ribbon must she buy? 

Respuesta :

1.5 yards of ribbon per bow 
84 bows need to be made, so 1.5 x 84 = 126 yards

1 yard = 0.33 feet, so 126/0.33=381.8181 (ans must round up)

So Jeanne will need 382 feet of ribbon
