Aroll of ribbon was 12 meters long. diego cut 9 pieces of ribbon that were 0.4meter
each to tie some presents. he then used the remaining ribbon to make some wreaths.
each wreath required 0.6 meter. for each question, explain your reasoning.

Work and Reasoning:
We start off with 12m
Since there are 9 ribbons each 0.4 meters you have to do 9 • 0.4. Since that is 3.6m.
To find out how much ribbon you have left you must subtract the amount he used against the amount he had to begin with.
12 - 3.6 = 8.4
To find out how many wreaths he can make, you must divide the remaining amount of ribbon he has by the 0.6 meter.
8.4 divided by 0.6 is 14.

He can make 14 wreaths with the remaining amount of ribbon.
