yuri has a rope 12 meters long. he cuts it into pieces that are each 2 meters long. what fraction of the rope is one piece

Sagot :

2/12
1/6
it's either the first one or the second one they r the same

The answer is [tex] \dfrac{1}{6} [/tex].


The rope is 12 meters long and each piece cut out is 2 meters long.

So we know that each piece measures 2 meters out of the 12 meters. With this alone we can make a fraction:

2 out of 12:

[tex] \dfrac{2}{12} [/tex]


This can be simplified further by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2.

[tex] \dfrac{2\div 2}{12\div2} = \dfrac {1}{6} [/tex]


Each piece is one-sixth of the rope.
