Question

Martin is building a model. he cuts two pieces of wood that are each 6 1/3 inches log from a board with a length of 18 inches.

Answer 1

Answer:

Total Length of Wooden Log = 18 inches

The length of two equal pieces of wooden log is $6\frac{1}{3}$ inches.

Total length of two wooden pieces  

     $=2 \times 6\frac{1}{3}\\\\=\frac{38}{3}\\\\=12 \frac{2}{3}$

Length of third piece of wooden log having length 18 cm

       $=18 -12\frac{2}{3}\\\\=18-\frac{38}{3}\\\\=\frac{16}{3}\\\\=5\frac{1}{3}$

So, Length of 3 parts of wooden log having length 18 cm are $6\frac{1}{3}, 6\frac{1}{3},and 5\frac{1}{3}.$
