Answer: 3 26/50 or 3 52/100
Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangular bedspread measures 1 1/10 by 3 2/10. To know the length of fringe that Rebekah needs to buy for the whole bed, we multiply the figures given together since it's a rectangle.
Area of a rectangle= length × breadth
= 3 2/10 × 1 1/10
Change to improper fraction
= 32/10 × 11/10
= 352/100
= 3 52/100
Reduced to lowest term will be 3 26/50.
The length Rebekah needs to purchase is 3 52/100 or 3 26/50.
