Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5:4:3 = x:y:2

4:3 = y:2                 Cross multiply

3y = 8                     Divide by 3

y = 8/3 = 2.66'

5/x = 3/2

3x = 10                   Divide by 3

x = 10/3

x = 3.33

Length of the wood = 2.66 + 3.33 + 2

Length of the wood = 8 feet

ohaa [14]
To do this, you can just multiply across. 3 times 1 equals 3 so your numerator is 3. 2 times 4 equals 8. Then, your answer would be 3/8. Hope this helps :)
