Anais bought 3 1/2 yards of ribbon. She had 2 feet 10 inches of ribbon left after trimming some curtains. How many inches of ribbon did Anais use to trim the curtains?

Respuesta :

First, convert how many yards there were to inches. 3 1/2 yards gets you 126 inches. Next, find out how many inches 2 feet and 10 inches of ribbon is. 34 is your answer. Subtract 34 from 126 to get an answer of 92 inches (7 feet, 6 inches.)
