Question

It takes exactly 26 paper clips laid end to end to make 17 7/8 inches. How long is each paper clip? (I really need the explanation)

Answer 1

Answer:

11/16 inch or 0.6875 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

26 * x = 17 7/8

17 7/8 = 143/8

143/8 ÷ 26 = 143/8 x 1/26 = 143/208 = 0.6875

0.6875 in = 11/16 in

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!
