The long piece is 4 times the length of the short piece.

Short piece = 1 time
Long piece  = 4 times
--------------------------------
Full rope  =  5 times

                                   5 times = 70 inches

Divide each side by 5 :    1 time = 14 inches

<em>Short piece</em> = 1 time = <em>14 inches</em>

<em>Long piece</em> = 4 times = 4 x 14inches = <em>56 inches</em>


<u>Check:</u>

Ratio of long to short  =  56inches / 14inches  = <u>4</u>

Sum of both pieces =  (56 + 14)  =  <u>70 inches</u>

                                                                         yay !

selct the measurements that are equal. Mark all that apply a.6 feet b.15 yards c.45feet d.600 inches e. 12 feet. f. 540 inches
Brut [27]

Answer:

15 yards, 45 feet and 540 inches are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know if the measurements are equal, we first need to convert all the measures to the same unit. In this case, I will convert them all to feet.

a.6 feet

b.15 yards ≈ 45 feet

c.45 feet

d.600 inches ≈ 50 feet

e. 12 feet

f. 540 inches  ≈ 45 feet

Therefore, b, c and f are equal.
