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
So the numerator of your fraction (the top number) is the amount that was cut. The denominator (the bottom number) is the total amount of rope. So, your fraction would be 2/12. You can still simplify that by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2 and end up with 1/6. Does that make sense? If you need any more help, go ahead and message me :)
Based on the length of the rope and the length of each piece cut, the fraction of that piece is 1/6.
The rope is 12 meters long and each piece is 2 meters long.
The fraction of this piece is therefore:
= Length of piece / Length of rope
= 2 / 12
At the simplest form this is:
= 1/6
In conclusion, the fraction of each piece is 1/6.
