A piece of ribbon 4 yards long is used to make bows requiring 15 inches of ribbon for each. What is the maximum number of bows that can be made?
Correct Answer: Option B
The maximum number of bows will be 4 yards (= 4 x 36 inches) divided by 15 inches.
This gives 9.6. But as a fraction of a bow is no use, we can only make 9 bows.
