Hi sorry but i cant really understand your step by step explanation
gwynthought
first multiply 2/5 by three since there are three needed ribbons and each ribbon needs 2/5 meters so when I multiplied the two values they resulted 6/5 and then I subtracted it from 5
gwynthought
I renamed 5 and made it improper with a denominator of 5 which gives 25/5 ( still the same right?) then when subtracted by 6/5 the remaining ribbon is 19/5 but if you want it to be mixed fraction its 3 4/5 meters
gwynthought
if you still got a problem understanding my solution just say so
