I'm helping my sisters' who's in 6th grade and I don't get the question. Hope you answer this!!! I'll put you as brainliest!

Answer 1

This would be 33 inches. the frame is 3 papers long when using the long end of the paper, which is 11 inches. 3 times 11 is equal to 33, so 33 inches would be the answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

The length will be 44 inches long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of sheet of paper = 11 inches

Width of sheet of paper is given by

8\frac{1}{2}\ inches=\frac{17}{2}\ inches

According to question, he lays the long edge of the paper along the long edge of the frame several times and finds the frame is 4 papers long.

Since the long edge = 11 inches

So, its length becomes

4\times 11\\\\=44\ inches
