Lennie wants to decorate a gift box with ribbon. She measures five pieces that she has with a ruler. They are 31.2 cm, 25.62 cm, 28.7 cm, 31.0 cm, and 42.06 centimeters long. Ashley needs 150 cm of ribbon for the box. Does she have enough?
Add up the lengths of the five pieces: 31.2 + 25.62 + 28.7 + 31.0 + 42.06 = 158.58. 158.58 is the total length and is larger than 150, so, yes there is enough ribbon.
