Grade 6 - End of term assessment Question 7
A seamstress needs to cut 15-inch pieces of ribbon from a roll of ribbon that is
9 feet in length. What is the greatest number of 15-inch pieces the seamstress
can cut from 5 of these rolls of ribbon?
Show your work.

The greatest number of 15 inches pieces that can be cut from 5 rolls of length 9 feet is: 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total length of one roll of ribbon = 9 feet

As the pieces have to be cut into inches, we will convert the measurement in feet to inches

As there are 12 inches in one feet, 9 feet will be equal to:

9*12 = 108 inches

Now first of all, we have to see how many 15 inches pieces can be cut from one role

So,

So the seamstress can cut 7 15-inch long pieces from a roll.

Now given that he has to cut from 5 rolls, the total number of 15-inch pieces will be:

Hence,

The greatest number of 15 inches pieces that can be cut from 5 rolls of length 9 feet is: 35
