Question

Max has 15-foot long piece of plastic pipe. He wants to cut it into four equivalent pieces to make corner flag poles for the soccer field. What should be the length of each flagpole that will be cut?

Answer 1

3.75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the length of each flagpole, we need to divide 15 (the total length of the piece of plastic pipe) by 4 because he wants 4 pieces. Then:

15 ÷ 4 = 3.75 feet

Then, each flagpole should have a length of 3.75 feet.
