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

You can get this by setting up 2 equations. One for you and one for your friend. Each should have a cost equation. Let x = adult and y = student.
