<h3>Answer:</h3>

19.5 inches

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let r represent the length of one of the sections of rope (in inches). Then the total length of the original rope is ...

... 8r +28.9 = 184.9

... 8r = 156 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 28.9; next, divide by 8

... 156/8 = r = 19.5

The length of each of the sections is 19.5 inches.

The most restrict classification of the numbers are given as follows:

  • Natural: 23.
  • Whole: 0.
  • Integer: -15/5 = -3, -1 and -sqrt(49) = -7.
  • Rational: 2.123, 3 and 1/4, 0.4 bar(F), square root of 16/25.
  • Irrational: π, -sqrt(35).

<h3>Which numbers are natural?</h3>

Natural numbers are positive numbers that do not have a decimal part. Hence among those, the natural numbers is: 23.

<h3>Which numbers are whole?</h3>

Whole numbers are non-negative numbers that do not have a decimal part. Hence among those, the whole number is: 0.

<h3>Which numbers are integers?</h3>

Integers are positive or negative numbers that do not have a decimal part, hence, for this problem, the integer numbers are: -15/5 = -3, -1 and -sqrt(49) = -7.

<h3>Which numbers are rational?</h3>

Fractions and terminating decimal numbers are rational, hence:

2.123, 3 and 1/4, 0.4 bar(F), square root of 16/25.

<h3>Which numbers are irrational?</h3>

Non-terminating and non-repeating decimals, such as non-exact square roots.

Hence the irrational numbers are:

π, -sqrt(35).
