Erika has 3 pieces of ribbon. Each piece is 25 yards long. She needs to cut pieces that are 22 inches long . What is the greatest number of 22-inch pieces that she can cut from the three ribbons? Why is this not 122 if 3*25 is 75, and 75*36 is 2700 since a yard is 36 inches, and 2700/22 rounded to the nearest whole number is about 122? If each piece of ribbon is 25yards, wouldn't 25 times 3 equal 75? Thanks!

40 pieces (for the first question)

Step-by-step explanation:

25 yards*3 pieces=75 yards

75 yards*12 inches=900 inches

900 inches/22 inches=40 sets of 22 inches

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
