Question

isaac has a piece of rope that is 5 yards long. into how many 1/2 yard pieces of rope can isaac cut the rope

Answer 1

What you have to do is figure out how many half inches you need to have to figure out how many half inches equal 5 yards. Therefore if there are 12 inches in a foot, then that would be 24 half inches. So..... three feet equal 1 yards. So multiply 3 by 24. 3x24=72 so you would need 72 half inches
