a. quincy needs 322 yards of ribbon to decorate quilts for a craft fair. the ribbon comes in rolls of 15 yards. how many rules of ribbon should quincy buy?

b. alice needs twice as many yards of ribbon as quincy. how many rules of ribbon does alice need?

c. elena needs yellow, red, and blue ribbon. she needs 285 yards of the three colors combined. suggest numbers of rolls of each color that would give her enough ribbon.(hint: break apart the 285 yards into any combination of 3 groups that total this amount.)

A) Quincy should buy 22 rolls

B) 43 rolls

C) she needs to buy 19 rolls of ribbon.

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

yards of ribbon = 322

ribbon comes in rolls= 15

Quincy should buy  = 322/15 = 21.46

Quincy should buy 22 rolls

B)

Twice the length of 322 yards is 644 yards. If I divide 644 by 15, the answer is 42 r 14. Because there is a remainder, we need to round the quotient up to 43.

Alice needs to buy 43 rolls of ribbon.

C)

If we divide the total amount of ribbon, 285, by the amount of ribbon in each roll, 15, we get:

285 ÷ 15 = 19

So, she needs to buy 19 rolls of ribbon.

One possible combination could be:

10 rolls of yellow ribbon = 150 yards

5 rolls of red ribbon = 75 yards

4 rolls of blue ribbon = 60 yards

total of: 10+5+4=19 rolls

Since there are 15 yards of ribbon in each roll, the total amount of ribbon will  be:

15×19=285

So answer is correct
