Respuesta :

Answer:

7839 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Francesca wants each balloon string to be 9 feet long.

She wants to get 67 balloons.

The total length of string she will need (in feet) is:

67 * 9 = 603 feet

The store sells string by the yard.

1 foot = 13 yards

Hence, the length of string she will need in yards will be:

603 * 13 = 7839 yards

She will need 7839 yards of string.
