Joy has a ribbon that measures 16 yards. She cuts 9 pieces of ribbon to decorate gifts. Each piece of ribbon that Joy cuts measures 4 feet.

What is the length, in yards, of the remaining ribbon?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4 yds

Step-by-step explanation:

So... 16 yards is 48 feet (because one yard is 3 feet so I just multiplied by 3)

and she cuts 9 pcs of ribbon each 4 feet

so it's 9 x 4 = 36

48 - 36 = 12

And 12 feet equals 4 yards

So, Joy has 4 yards of remaining ribbon
