One hoop is 30cm wide.

1) How many hoops would you need to make a railing that is 250cm long?

2) Can you find a rule that gives the lengths of railing for any given number of hoops? (Challenging!)

REMEMBER TO SHOW AND EXPLAIN YOUR WORKING OUT SO THAT I CAN SEE HOW YOU SOLVED THE PROBLEM. YOU MAY ALSO UPLOAD AND DIAGRAMS AND PICTURES YOU MAY HAVE DRAWN IF THIS HELPS TO EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWERS.
