Answer:
The fraction jumped into boiling water because it wanted to be reduced.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a maths riddle about fractions. We often see fractions that we might feel could be reduced. So, if these kinds of fractions jumps into a boiling water, they get reduced. The riddle is rather funny though.
Not a sufficient enough question, pls elaborate.
Let x = the length of the shorter piece
x+x+16=50in
2x=50-16
2x=34
x=17
Then
x+16=17+16
x+16=33
Subtract 16 from both sides
The lengths are 17in and 33in
