Linda had an orange ribbon and a blue ribbon. The orange ribbon was 2 meters long. The blue ribbon was 4/5 as long as the orange ribbon. Linda cut off a piece of the blue ribbon. The length of the piece was 25% of the length of the blue ribbon.

A) What was the length of the blue ribbon before it was cut?
B) Find the length of the piece of the blue ribbon that Linda cut off.

To find the length of the blue ribbon, multiply 4/5 to 2.

2 * 4/5

2/1 * 4/5

Multiply the numerators and denominators together:

8/5 or 1 6/10 or 1.6

This is the length of the blue ribbon.

Multiply 25% to 8/5 to find out how much she cut off.

0.25/1 * 8/5

Multiply the numerators and denominators together.

2/5

So Linda cut off 2/5 from the blue ribbon.
