Question

Bruce has a rope that us 21 feet long he needs to cut the rope into 1/5 feet long strips how many strips can Bruce cut from his rope

Answer 1

105 strips bc since it’s 21 feet long and he wants to cut 1/5 on each strip you just simply divide it:)

Answer 2

We know that 12 inches is a feet so if we divide 12 with 5, we get 2.4


now divide 21 by 2.4 and it will give us 8.75, but that won't work so lets count

2.4:1
4.8:2
7.2:3
9.6:4
12.0:5
14.4:6
16.8:7
19.2:8
21.6:9
it seems that bruce can only make 8 strips of ropes that are 1/5 feet.
