Alright, lets get started.
Suppose total number of dancers in school = x
We have given in question, 42 % of total dancers are ballet dancers.
So, we could find number of ballet dancers by finding 42 % of total dancers.
Number of ballet dancers = x * 42 %
Number of ballet dancers = x * 42/100 = 0.42 x
As per given in question, there are 63 ballet dancers in school.
Which means 0.42 x = 63
Dividing 0.42 from both sides
0.42 x / 0.42 = 63 / 0.42
x = 150
Hence number of total dancers in school = 150 : Answer

Answer is provided in the image attached.
-------------------------------------------
Define x:
-------------------------------------------
Let the shorter piece be x.
Shorter piece = x
Longer piece = 6x
-------------------------------------------
Construct equation:
-------------------------------------------
x +6x =35
7x = 35
x =5
-------------------------------------------
Find the length:
-------------------------------------------
Shorter length = x = 5 feet
Larger length = 6x = 6(5) = 30 feet
-------------------------------------------
Answer: The shorter piece is 5 feet.
