Lucy has 4 inches of ribbon that she wants to cut into 6 equal sized pieces. what is true about the length of each piece of ribbon. a) each piece has 6/4 inches of ribbon b) each piece has 1/4 of 6 inches of ribbon c) each piece has 1/6 of 4 inches of ribbon

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total length of ribbon lucy has=4 inches

She wants to divide it into 6 equal sized pieces so  

Length of each piece=4/6

This can also be written as:

Length of each piece=4*(1/6 )

Now we will look at the options one by one:

For A, Each piece has 6/4 inches of ribbon.. This statement is not true as we have to divide 4 inches into 6 pieces so 4 is supposed to be in the numerator.

For B, breaking down 4/6 gives us 4*(1/6), so the statement is not true.

For C , as we can see that the expression is 4*(1/6), each piece will have 1/6 of inches of ribbon.

So option C is the correct answer..

b or 2, just plug these equations into your graphing calculator then check the graph to see the image. if it matches up then that's your answer!

3/4 ÷ 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

basically divide any proper fraction with itself to fit the criteria.

so if we are using 3/4, then:

3/4 ÷ 3/4 = 1

so 1 is the quotient.

and the numerators for both these fractions is 3.   and if we divide the numerators:

3 ÷ 3 = 1

we see that quotient is equal to our original quotient as well.
