a carpenter has a board that is 10 feet long. he wants to make 6 table legs that are all the same length. What is the longest each leg can be?

Sagot :

luana
[tex]length\ of\ each=\frac{length\ of\ board}{number\ of\ table}\\\\length\ of\ each=\frac{10}{6}=1\frac{4}{6}=1\frac{2}{3}feet\\\\Each\ leg\ can\ measure\ 1\frac{2}{3}feet.[/tex]
If they are all to be equal, then they're all the same LONGEST length . . .

10ft / 6 legs = 1 2/3 ft = 1ft 8in (for the record, those are pretty short legs for a table)
