A 160-inch board is cut into two pieces. One piece is four times the length of the other. Find the length of the shorter piece.
1 answer:
Let the shorter piece be x. The longer piece is 4 times the length of the other, so it is 4x.
4x + x = 160.
5x = 160
x = 32
4x = 128
The length of the shorter piece is x, which is 32.
