if a teacher had 75 Ft of ribbon and she want to split it into 18 equal pieces how long would each piece be?
+529 If we made each piece 4 feet long, there would be 3 feet of ribbon left over. 3 feet equals 36 inches, so if we divided this among the 18 pieces we could give each 2 more inches, and there would be no ribbon remaining. So the answer is each piece could be made 4' 2" exactly.
