x the length of the shorter piece 3·x the length of the longer piece x + 3·x the length of the whole board = 4·x = 76" x = 76" / 4 = 19.
Write an equation and solve it. Call the length of the shorter piece "x", in this case, the longer piece is "3x". The sum of the two is equal to 116 inches.
piece a has a greater length than piece b (a>b)
l = 100/p inches.
7.25 yards = 261 inches - 6 inches = 255 inches Divide 255 by however many pieces there are.
8 feet 6 inches = 102 inches. If the three pieces cut are equal in length then each would be (102/3) = 34 inches long (not accounting for material wasted in the cutting process).
i really dont get it
51 pieces of 2 inch lengths adds up to 102 inches. These cannot be cut from a strip which is only 66 inches long.
To find out how many 3.5 inch pieces can be cut from a 63-inch ribbon, divide the total length of the ribbon (63 inches) by the length of each piece (3.5 inches). The calculation is 63 ÷ 3.5 = 18 pieces. Therefore, 18 pieces of 3.5 inches can be cut from a 63-inch ribbon.
Write an equation and solve it. Call the length of the shorter piece "x", in this case, the longer piece is "3x". The sum of the two is equal to 116 inches.
piece a has a greater length than piece b (a>b)
By unit of length and distance and conversion ,we can say that 1 feet=12 inches 5 feet =60 inches no .of pieces = 60 /4 =15 pieces
There will be 300 pieces of steel cable if it is cut into 8-centimeter lengths. This calculation is done by converting the total length of 24 meters into centimeters (2400 cm) and then dividing by the length of each piece (8 cm).
To match the total length of 60 inches - two equal pieces would be 30 inches each.
The recommended 2x4 pocket hole screw length for joining wood pieces securely is typically 2.5 inches.
Number of pieces crosswise = 4 ft / 8 inches = 48 inches / 8 inches = 6 Number of pieces lengthwise = 8 ft / 20 inches = 96 inches / 20 inches = 3 So, total number of pieces = 6*3 = 18.
l = 100/p inches.
Oh, what a happy little problem we have here! If we let the length of the shorter piece be x inches, then the longer piece would be 3x inches. Since the total length is 80 inches, we can set up the equation x + 3x = 80 and solve for x. The shorter piece is 20 inches long and the longer piece is 60 inches long. It's just that easy!
