Yoni has a ribbon that measures 5/3 yards. She wants to cut it into 3 equal pieces. What is the length of each piece of ribbon? 5\8 yards 5/6 yards 5/9 yards 5/3 yards

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{3} * \frac{5}{3} = \frac{1 * 5}{3*3} = \frac{5}{9}[/tex]

The answer is 5/9 as you can see. 5/9 = 20 inches each.

1 yard = 36 inches

(5/9 * 36)  = 5 * 4 = 20 inches.

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

I have a trick id like to teach here. Whenever you have a fraction being divided by a whole number, you can multiply the denominator by the diviser

So what I did was multiply the 3 by the diviser(3) and got 9

This left me with 5/9
