You need to make a series of equations from what you are given first. I am going to use the first letter of each of the names to represent the length of that persons wire.
1/2s=2/5d
3c=s
s+d+c=6 ft

Okay. Now you can combine the first two equations knowing what s equals:
1/2(3c)=2/5d
d=15c/4

Now you have d=15c/4 and s=3c, so you can replace d and s in the third equation.

3c+15c/4+c=6

Then solve for c and plug it into the equation 3c=s to find the length of sarah's wire.

Red ribbons are wrapped around all the columns of a building. Each ribbon does not overlap itself. Each column has a radius of 3
Roman55 [17]

Hello!

If this long ribbon measures 144\pi feet, you can see, it was only multiplied by one number, which has the be the diameter of a column to get our circumference. If we divide this by our diameter 6 (diameter is double the radius, 3), we get our answer below.

144/6=24

Therefore, our answer is C) 24.

I hope this helps!
