Question

Please help three pieces of ribbon, each 85 cm long, are cut from a length of ribbon three meters long. what is the length of the left-over ribbon

Answer 1

Find out how much a meter is in terms of centimeters (cm). you have 3 meters of ribbon totally. You cut out three ribbons,each 85 cm. so the total length of the three ribbons is 3 times 85 cm. so the leftover ribbon length is (3meters) - (3 times 85 cm)
