Let the length of the shorter piece of wood be ( x ) feet. Then, the longer piece is ( 3x ) feet. Together, they add up to 8 feet, so the equation is ( x + 3x = 8 ). Solving this gives ( 4x = 8 ), so ( x = 2 ). Thus, the shorter piece of wood is 2 feet long.
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.
Let the length of the shorter piece be ( x ) inches. Then, the longer piece would be ( 3x ) inches. Since the total length of the pipe is 208 inches, we have the equation ( x + 3x = 208 ). Solving this gives ( 4x = 208 ), so ( x = 52 ) inches for the shorter piece and ( 3x = 156 ) inches for the longer piece.
Assuming the two shorter pieces are of the same length, the problem could be set up as 2x + (x + 5) = 26: (2 short pcs + (1 short PC + 5 ft) and solve: 2x + (x + 5) = 26 3x + 5 = 26 3x = 21 x = 7 x + 5 = 12 Each short piece is 7 ft and the long piece is 12 ft.
If a pie is divided into 10 pieces and you get one of them, will each piece be bigger than if the pie is divided into 12? Of course each piece will be bigger. Same for 3 pieces of the pie.
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.
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!
The longer piece is 70 feet and the shorter piece is 56 feet. Three fifths of 70 is 42 and three fourths of 56 is 42.
Let x be the length measure of the shortest piece of wood, and 3x the length measure of the other piece of wood. So we have: x + 3x = 8 4x = 8 divide by 4 to both sides; x = 2 The length measure of the shortest piece of wood is 2.
If you let x equal the short piece then 3x would be the long piece. x + 3x = 24 4x = 24 x = 6 3x = 18 So, the shorter piece would be 6 ft. and the longer piece would be 18 ft.
one fifth is 3.2m. so one three-fifths piece is 9.6m and the two-fifths piece is 5.4m
I think 9 and 3... no, its 5 and 7.

The bequest itself was a "congiarium" of gift to the people. The denomination was the aureus or gold piece.

Depends on how many pieces you cut it into. It could be a single piece or dozens if you mince it.
