Orange ribbon 2 meters long. The blue ribbon was 4/5 as long ad the orange. Linda cuts off a piece of blue ribbon. The length of the piece was 25% of the length of the blue ribbon. What was the length of the blue ribbon before it was cut?

The initial length of the blue ribbon = 1.6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, according to the question:

The initial length of orange ribbon = 2 meters

Let us assume the initial length of blue ribbon = S meters

Now, the length of blue ribbon = (4/5) times the length of orange ribbon

x Length of Orange ribbon

or S  = 1.6 meters

Hence, the initial length of the blue ribbon is 1.6 meters.

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.
