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

ANTONII [103]
Let n =  required random sample size.

Assume that the population standard deviation is known as σ.
Let m =  sample mean.
At the 95% confidence level, the expected range is
(m - k(σ/√n), m + k(σ/√n))
where k = 1.96.

Therefore the error margin is 1.96(σ/√n).
Because the error margin is specified as 3% or 0.03, therefore
(1.96σ)/√n = 0.03
√n = (1.96σ)/0.03
n = 128.05σ²

This means that the sample size is about 128 times the population variance.

Answer:
Smallest sample size = 128.05σ², where σ = population standard deviation.

125% because sixteen is equal to a whole which is equal to one-hundered and one fourth of sixteen is four and sixteen plus four is twenty. one fourth of one-hundered is twenty-five so you add the twenty-five to the one-hundered and you get 125%
