Question

Subling bought 3meters ribbon. She used 5/6meters make bow. Find length ribbon left.

Answer 1

There is a total of 3 meters of ribbon. If you change this into fraction form: 1 Meter = 6/6 meters, so 3 meters would be 18/6 meters. If she used 5/6 meters to make a bow, then 18/6 - 5/6 = 13/6 meters are left, or 2.167 meters of ribbon are left after making the bow. Hope this helps you out!
