Jack draws a pattern of 2 cm wide strips on the wall in the following order: a red strip, a blue strip, an orange strip, a pink strip, and then he repeats the colors in the same order. How long is Jack's pattern if the first and last stripes he painted were red, and he painted six red strips in total?

Answer:

His pattern is 42cm long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each repetition of the pattern is 8 cm (4 colors time 2cm each)

If the last color is red and he painted 6 red strips in total, then he repeated the pattern 5 times and ended on an extra red strip.

So 8cm times 5 repetitions equals 40, plus 2cm for the extra red strip.
