It takes 9 meters of ribon to make 24 bows. how many meters of ribbom doesnit take to make 16 bows?

We need 6 meters of ribbon to make 16 bows

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Take the meters of ribbon over the number of bows

9 meters       x meters

  =

24 bows       16 bows

Using cross products

9*16 = 24x

Divide each side by 24

9*16/24 = 24x/24

6 =x

We need 6 meters of ribbon to make 16 bows

in mathematics, a function is a relationship between two variables such that the value of one of the variables, called the dependent variable, is determined by the value of the other variable, called the independent variable. there is a specific term we use to describe the set of independent variables of a function.
