1.5 yards of ribbon If each ribbon costs 10 cents per foot, what is total cost of ribbon in dollars

In this question, importance has to be given to all the information's provided. Based on these information's the answer to the question can be reached.

Total length of ribbon = 1.5 yards

1 yard = 3 foot

1.5 yards = 3 * 1.5 feet

= 4.5 feet

So the total length of the ribbon is 4.5 feet.

Now

Cost of 1 foot of ribbon = 10 cents

Then

Cost of 4.5 feet of ribbon = 10 * 4.5 cents

= 45 cents.

= 45/100 dollars

= 0.45 dollars

So the cost of the total ribbon in dollars is $0.45.
