Question

Francisco had a rectangular piece of wrapping paper that was inches on two sides and 19 inches on the longer sides. Monica has a similar piece of paper with two longer sides that each measure 38 inches. What is the measurement of one of the two shorter sides in Monica's wrapping paper?

a)26 2/3
b)28 2/3
c) 29 1/3
d)57 1/3

Answer 1

The correct answer is B) 28 2/3

Answer 2

B:)

Explanation:

the similar paper appears to be 2 times larger then Fransicos since 38/19=2, so I did 14 1/3*2 which equals 28 2/3, so the answer is B
