Answer:
Eight pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
Create a number line running from 0 to 4/6.
Label the divisions as 1/6, 2/6, 3/6, and 4/6.
Divide each section in half to get small pieces of length 1/12.
Starting at zero, move to 4/6 on the number line and count the number of pieces as you go.
You count eight pieces, so Dario has eight pieces of rope.
Given that,
The length of ribbon= 36 inch
We know, if Shelia wants to divide the ribbon in 5 equal parts, she needs to divide the length of the ribbon by 5.
So,
The length of the 5 equal parts of the ribbon= 36/5= 7.2 inch
But Shelia got each pieces length equals to 7 inches.
So, There is an error of (7.2-7) 0.2 inches in her calculation.
It will be 5 pieces each to each person
