Question

Fred cut an 84 centimeter rope into 2 parts and gave his sister one part. Fred's part is 56 centimetres long. His sister cut her rope into 4 equal pieces. How long is one of his sister's pieces of rope

Answer 1

Hi,
Since Fred's part was 56 cm, his sister's was 84-56=28
She cut it into 4 parts, so 28/4=7 cm
Her rope was 7 cm long.
Hope this helps you.
