Answer 2

a) 1/2 of an energy bar

b) 42 pieces

Explanation:

a) Here, Franklin are 3/4 of an energy bar while Trey are 2/3 of what Franklin ate

The fraction are by Trey is 2/3 * 3/4 = 6/12 = 1/2

b) To find the number of pieces of wood present, we will need to divide the height of Colin’s stack by the thickness of each piece of wood

Mathematically, that will be;

57 3/4 divided by 1 3/8

= 231/4 * 8/11 = 42 pieces
