Answer:

4 complete ribbons

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question,

We can deduce that a project = complete ribbons

Hence,

1 1/4 yards = 1 complete project

6 yards = x

Cross Multiply

1 1/4 yards × x = 6 yards × 1 complete project

x = 6 yards ÷ 1 1/4 yards

x = 6 yards ÷ 5/4 yards

x = 6 yards × 4 yards/5

x = 24 /5

x = 4 4/5 complete projects(ribbons)

Therefore, she can cut 4 complete ribbons from 6 yards
