Answer:

In total the 3 friends have

342 inches of ribbon

28.8 feet of Ribbon

9.5 yards of Ribbon

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 12 inches in a foot. You just need to multiply 7.5 by 12 resulting in 90 inches.

So Carol has 90 inches of Ribbon

Tino has 90 inches of ribbon

To figure how much Baxter has in inches, remember that 3ft equals 1 yard. Multiply 4.5 by 3 which is 13.5 Now multiply it by 12. Baxter has 162 inches of Ribbon

90 + 90 + 162= 342 inches

To find how much each friend has in feet divide 90 by 12 which is 7.5 Now for Baxter just multiply 4.5 by 3 to get

13.5

13.5ft + 7.5ft + 7.5ft = 28.5ft

Lastly to figure out how much each friend has in yards divide 90 by 12, you should now have 7.5 now divide that by 3 which is 2.5yards. For Tino yout should get 2.5 yards since 7.5÷3 is 2.5

2.5 + 2.5 + 4.5 = 9.5
