Ahh! Thanks.
Divide 15 yards by 20 boxes.
15 / 20 = 0.75 = 3/4 yard for each box.

1 yard = 3 feet = 36 inches
3/4 yard = (3/4) * 36 = 27 inches = 2 feet and 3 inches
Let's try your answer:
5 feet * 20 = 100 feet = 33.3 yards. Five feet is too much. You don't have that much ribbon.
3/4 yard = (3/4) * 36 = 27 inches = 2 feet and 3 inches
