Question

A piece of rope 20 feet long is cut from a longer piece that is at least 32 feet long. The remainder is cut into four pieces of equal length. Describe the length of each of the four pieces

Answer 1

Answer78inches

Step-by-step explanation:344983 feet long

Answer 2

p is greater than or equal to 3 (p being the length of each 4 pieces)

Explanation:

Since 20 ft is cut from a strip that is AT LEAST 32 ft you do; 32-20=12
Then there are 4 pieces with equal length so you do 12/4=3
Since the strip is AT LEAST 32 feet then the answer could be greater than 3 because 20 could be subtracted from a greater number.

32-20=12
12/4=3
