Answer:

The short pieces are 10  cm each and the long pieces are 15 cm each.

Step-by-step explanation:

We cut a 60cm rope into 5 pieces. There are 3 short pieces that measure the same and the other 2 pieces are 5cm longer than the short ones. How long are the pieces?

let the length of the short pieces is p.

Length of longer pieces = p + 5

So,

60 = 3 p + 2 (p+ 5)

60 = 3 p + 2p + 10

5 p =  50

p = 10 cm

So, the short pieces are 10  cm each and the long pieces are 15 cm each.
