Each piece will be the same length. We can convert 5 1/2 into an improper fraction. 5 1/2 = 11 / 2 Divide 66 by this improper fraction. 66 / (11 / 2) When we divide by a fraction, we multiply by the reciprocal of that fraction. 66 * (2 / 11) = 2 * 6 = 12 12 pieces can be cut.
Answer:
y = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
4(9) = 4 x 9 = 36
I can solve it?
take away 11 from both sides to make..
4x = 4
simplified (4 ÷ 4) to make x=1
