dan is cutting 4.75-foot lengths of twine from a 240-foot spool of twine. he needs to cut 42 lengths and says that 40.5 feet of twine will remain. show that this is reasonable.

to find the ammount of twine left we subtract (twine used) from (total twine) or (total twine)-(twine used)=ammount left

so he must cut 42 legnths of rope  each legnth is 4.75 and this is taken from a

total legnth of 240 so

240-42(4.75)=amount left

42 trimes 4.75=199.5

240-199.5=40.5 left
