Laura cuts 64 inches of ribbon into two parts and give her mom one part. Laura's part is 28 inches long. Her mom cuts her ribbon into 6 equal pieces. How long is one of her mom pieces of ribbon?

Sagot :

if Laura`s part was 28 inches take away that from 64 which is 36 then divide 36 by 6 which is 6
