1.Simplified each one
2/5 (both divided by 7) , 1/2 (divided by 21)
2.Make them into integer
(2/5 )*(2/2)=4/10 , (1/2)*(5/5)=5/10
Now the dominators are the same ,you can just compare the numerators. It is 4:5
Answer:
The shorter piece x = 8.4 in
The longer one y = 15.6 in
Step-by-step explanation:
If we cut a string length L in to unequal pieces we get two pieces
first one with length x and the other one with length y
Let call x the smaller piece, then y = L - x will be the longer one
If x = 35 % then
x = 0,35* L and
y = L - x = L - 0,35*L ⇒ y = 0,65 L ⇒ y = 0.65*24
Now if L = 24 in
x = 0,35*24 ⇒ x = 8.4 in
and
L - x = 0.65*L ⇒ L - x = 0.65*24 y = L - x = 15.6 in
as way of verification you can add the length of the two pieces and find:
8.4 + 15.6 = 24 in
