Answer:
See the figure attached with the complete question, including the line plot.
- <u>The size of the middle spoon is 4/4 feet = 1 feet.</u>
Explanation:
Each mark on the line plot represents a spoon and the position on the line indicates its length,
- There are two marks over the the lenght 1/4, thus there are two spoons with that length,
- One spoon with length 2/4,
- One spoon with length 3/4,
- Four spoons with length 4/4, and
- One spoon with length 5/4
Those are in total 9 spoons. Thus, if she lines up all of her spoons in order size, the fifth spoon is the middle spoon, and its size is 4/4 feet.
