Eli made fancy blue costume decorations for each of the dancers in his year-end dance performance.He used 1/10 of a meter of ribbon for each decoration,which he got by cutting 1/5 of a meter of ribbon into equal pieces. How many decorations did Eli make?

Respuesta :

Answer: There are 2 decorations that Eli makes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of a meter of ribbon used = [tex]\dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{1}{10}\times 100=10[/tex]

Length of a meter cut into equal pieces = [tex]\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{1}{5}\times 100=20[/tex]

So, Number of decorations that Eli make is given by

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Length of total ribbon}}{\text{Length of ribbon used}}\\\\=\dfrac{20}{10}\\\\=2[/tex]

Hence, there are 2 decorations that Eli makes.
