Question

Barney has 16 2/3 feet of lumber that he is going to to cut into 4 equal pieces for a border on his garden. Which of the following is true?

Answer 1

Each piece of lumber is 4 1/6 feet long.


How do we know that? well if you take the numbers you have  and divide you can find the answer, so.

16$\frac{2}{3}$ ÷ 4 = 4$\frac{1}{6}$

Therefore the answer is 4 1/6 (:
