What is it called if you cut something into three equal pieces?
Trisect.
What is something cut into two pieces called and starts with bi?
Bisected.
Why is one third greater than one fourth?
When something is cut into equal pieces, (think of a pie), the pieces are larger the fewer pieces there are. If the pie is cut in half, that is an entire HALF of the pie one has to eat. But if the pie is cut into three equal pieces, there are more pieces, but they are smaller. So, one fourth of the pie would be even smaller because you are getting ONE piece of a pie that is cut into FOUR pieces. The bottom number of the fraction is how many equal sized pieces there are, and the top number is how many you are getting.
Is one third bigger than one twelfth?
Yes. When you cut a pizza into 3 pieces, the pieces are bigger than they are when you cut it into 12 pieces.
How meany pieces do you cut a pie into if you bisect it?
It is 2 pieces
If a cube of Jello is cut into two pieces what property of the pieces did change?
If a cube of jello is cut into two pieces the density of the pieces do not change.
Why Is 4 over 9 greater than 4 over 10?
Because 4 pieces of something that was cut up in 9 pieces is more than 4 pieces of something that was cut up in 10 pieces. If you cut it up in 9 pieces instead of 10, then the pieces are bigger.
What is it called if you cut something into three equal pieces?
Trisect.
What is something cut into two pieces called and starts with bi?
Bisected.
What type of change is a board being cut into two pieces?
physical
What does not change when you cut a pure substance into pieces?
Listen in Science people.
What does bisect mean?
Bisect means to cut something in to two pieces.
Does the mass of an object change when you cut it into pieces?
No, the mass of an object remains the same when it is cut into pieces. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, so dividing it into smaller pieces does not change the total amount of matter present. Each piece will have a portion of the original mass.
How do you get 5 percent of something?
Cut it up into 20 pieces that are all the same size. Then pick up any one of the pieces.
Does an object's volume change when cut in half?
No, an object's volume remains the same when it is cut in half. The volume of an object is determined by its dimensions and does not change when it is divided into smaller pieces.
Why are fourths bigger than tenths?
Fourths are much bigger than tenths. They are so much bigger that it only takes FOUR of them to make one whole something. Tenths are smaller; it takes TEN of them to make the same whole something. Make 2 identical strawberry rhubarb pies. Cut one into FOUR equal pieces. Cut the other into TEN equal pieces. If you give out a piece from the one cut into 4 pieces, and a piece from the one cut into 10 pieces, which piece will be larger? The first pie is cut into fourths, and the second is cut into tenths.
If a tube of jello is cut into two pieces what total property of the new piece change?
Assuming you mean what property of the two pieces added together changes after the cut is made, it has to be surface area. The total mass of the two pieces remains the same, as does the volume, and obviously color, opacity, and other such properties remain the same, but surface area increases by 2 times the cross section of the cut.
