Eric’s kite spool had 100 yards of string. At first, he let out 50 feet of string. Then, the kite rose for another 16 yards. How much string was left on the spool?

5 answers

yd = ft / 3
yd = 50 / 3
yd = 16 2 / 3

50 feet = 16 2 / 3 yard
100 - 16 2 / 3 = 83 1 / 3
83 1 / 3 - 16 = 67 1 / 3 yards of string

3*100 - 50 - 3*16 = 202 ft

Is there anything specific that you want me to assist you with?
