Elsa got a prepaid debit card with $15 on it. For her first purchase with the card, she bought some bulk ribbon at a craft store. The price of the ribbon was 7 cents per yard. If after that purchase there was $12.83 left on the card, how many yards of ribbon did Elsa buy?

Respuesta :

Polyblock

Answer:

31 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

If she has $12.83 left, that means she spent $2.17 out of the $15

15 - 12.83 = 2.17

One cent is .01 of a dollar

So that would be $0.07 per yard

To find the number of yards, we need to divide the total amount she spent by the price per yard.

2.17 ÷ 0.07 = 31
