Celine uses 24 inches of ribbon to make one hair bow.
She buys six yards of ribbon. How many bows can she make?

First you would find out how many inches are in a single yard. Then you would multiply it by six in order to find out how many inches are in 6 yards (of ribbon in this case). One yard is equivilent to 36 inches. Multiply that by 6.
So, in 6 yards, there are 216 inches. Now you need to take 216 and divide it by 24 (inches). 216/24 = 9.

Your answer is 9.
