Let the length of the shorter piece be ( x ) feet. Then the longer piece would be ( 2x ) feet. According to the problem, the total length of the rope is 36 feet, so we can set up the equation: ( x + 2x = 36 ). Solving this gives ( 3x = 36 ), which means ( x = 12 ) feet for the shorter piece, making the longer piece ( 2x = 24 ) feet. Therefore, the long piece must be 24 feet long.
Hint: 1 m = 10 dm... 3 meters = 3 x 10 dm = 30 dm

Multiply by 36.
8 meters. :) WRONG! It's 6 meters. Fred's rope = 6 Susan's rope = 18 Allison's rope = 12 6 + 18 + 12 = 36
How long is a piece of rope?

The length of the rope would be half the wavelength of the standing wave, so in this case, the rope would be 5 meters long. This is because the fundamental frequency of the standing wave has one full wavelength, which corresponds to half the length of the rope.

The length of a piece of rope is twice the distance from the middle to one end.
It can differ from however long the piece of rope, wire etc. attached is.

Well, darling, if you cut that rope in half, you'll end up with two pieces that are each 2 meters and 3 centimeters long. Simple math, honey, nothing fancy about it. Just make sure you don't trip over those two pieces while strutting your stuff!
