Alexis is knitting a blanket 2 meters long. Every 2 decimeters, she changes the color of the yarn to make stripes. How many stripes will the blanket have?

Answer :

Answer:

There are 10 stripes in the blanket.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Length of blanket = 2 meters

1 meter = 10 decimeter

Length of blanket in decimeter =

[tex]2\times 10 = 20\text{ decimeters}[/tex]

Change of color = Every 2 decimeters.

Number of stripe =

[tex]=\dfrac{\text{Length of blanket}}{\text{Length of change of color of stripe}}\\\\=\dfrac{20}{2} = 10[/tex]

Thus, there are 10 stripes in the blanket.
