Let's say that the shorter piece is x and the longer piece is 5x (because it's 5 times as long). x+5x=72 and 6x=72. Dividing both sides by 6, we get that x=12, and 72-12=the length of the other piece (since there are only 2 pieces)=60

Step-by-step explanation: i hope it helped
Earth: radius = 6378 kilometer, diameter = 12756 kilometers.
1) 11 1/8
2) 5/7
3)it would be 233/3 but since that isn't your option try going with 23/3
4) 10 / 16
5) 9/3 = 3 (aka 3/1 ) then 3/9 = 0.3.
Answer for number 5 ⬇
Therefore 9/3 would be your greatest
~the fractions doesn't equal each other~{meaning that the equal sign wouldn't be your answer} ~
~3/9 Would be lesser than 9/3~
~just make the fraction into division .it might help ~
