I really need help!!!!ASAP!!!Will mark as brainest!!!(Feel free to explain how you got your answer! :)

A. Quincy needs 322 yards of ribbon to decorate quilts for a craft fair. The ribbon comes in rolls of 15 yards. How many rules of ribbon should Quincy buy?

B. Alice needs twice as many yards of ribbon as Quincy. How many rules of ribbon does Alice need?

C.Elena needs yellow,red,and blue ribbon.She needs 285 yards of the three colors combined.Suggest numbers of rolls of each color that would give her enough ribbon.(HINT:Break apart the 285 yards into any combination of 3 groups that total this amount.)

Respuesta :

A. Since the ribbons come in rolls of 15, we need groups of 15 yards. Since we are told that we have 322 yards. We have to find a way to express this number into groups of 15. To do that we can simply divide. 322 /15 = 21.466... since we can’t have one fourth of a role, we have to buy a whole one to be able to get that .4. So, Quincy needs 22 roles.

B. Twice means two times something. So all you do is multiply 322( the number of yards Quincy needs) times 2 = 644. Alice needs 644 yards of ribbon.

C. All you have to do is break 285 yards into 3 groups so: 285/3= 95. So, Elena needs 95 yards of yellow, 95 yards of red, and 95 yards of blue.

Hope this helped and pls mark as brainliest!
