The school club needs additional 43.25 feet of rope.
Step-by-step explanation:
Rope containing 2 pieces have 16 yards in length.
Rope containing 1 piece have 12.5 yards in length.
Rope containing 1 piece have 123.25 feet in length.
We will need this conversion formula:
1 yard = 3 foot.
Now let us find dimensions of each part.
Rope containing 2 pieces having 16 yards in length = 2 [tex]\times[/tex] 16
= 32 yards
= 32 [tex]\times[/tex] 3
= 96 feet.
Rope containing 1 piece having 12.5 yards in length or 37.5 feet.
Rope containing 1 piece having 123.25 feet in length.
Adding the three measures = 96 + 37.5 +123.25
= 256.75 feet.
Rope required = 300 - 256.75
= 43.25 feet.
