A green ribbon is 9 inches long. A red ribbon is 1/10 the length of the green ribbon. A purple ribbon is 10 times as long as the red ribbon. What is the length of the purple ribbon?
9 inches long
9 divided by 10 is .9
multiply it by 10 (to get the length of the purple ribbon) and the answer is 9
Answer:
Length of purple ribbon is 9 inches,
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of green ribbon = 9 inches
Length of red ribbon = one tenth of green ribbon
Length of purple ribbon = ten times of red ribbon
therefore length of purple of ribbon can be given by mathematical expression as below = \(\frac{1}{10} X10X 9 = 9\) inches
therefore length of purple ribbon is same as red ribbon.
