What is the length of the remaining length of string?
One bow used 2 inches of the string, and the other bow used 5 inches of the bow.

Answer 1

After using 2 inches and 5 inches of a 13-inch string for making two bows, the remaining length of the string is 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking about the remaining length of the string after making two bows with different lengths. To find the remaining length, we need to subtract the total length of string used for both bows from the original length of the string.

• Original string length: 13 inches
• Length used for the first bow: 2 inches
• Length used for the second bow: 5 inches
• Total length used for bows: 2 inches + 5 inches = 7 inches
• The remaining length of the string: 13 inches - 7 inches = 6 inches

Therefore, after making the two bows, the length of the remaining string is 6 inches.

Answer 2

The string is 6 inch
