Given
Gina has 6 yards of ribbon.
She cuts the ribbon into pieces that each measures three fourths yard.
Find out how many pieces of three fourths yard does Gina have
To proof
let the number of pieces of the ribbon be x.
As given in the question
Gina has of ribbon = 6 yards
She cuts the ribbon into pieces that each measures three fourths yard
Than the equation becomes
[tex]x\times \frac{3}{4} = 6[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{6 \times 4}{3}[/tex]
solving the above equation
we get
x = 2 × 4
x = 8
Gina have 8 pieces of three fourths yard
Hence proved
