Astick 111 inches long is broken into two pieces, so that one piece is twice as long as the other. how long are the two pieces?

Answer:

The length of the short part is 37 inches, and the length of the other part is 74 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total length of the stick =  111 inches.

One piece is twice as long as the other.

To Find:

Length of the two pieces=?

Solution:

Let the length of one piece be n,

Then the other piece will be 2n.

Now, total length of stick = n + 2n

=>111 inches = 2n + n

=>111 = 3n

=>

So, length of short path is 37 inches,

Then length of other part is

=> 2(n)

=>2(37)

=> 74 inches.

Hence, the length of the short part is 37 inches, and the length of the other part is 74 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|
