eight members of a club will make a paper chain. the chain is 4 feet long. each member will make an equal part. how much of the chain , in feet, will each member make?
what is 4/8 feet?
4/8 = 1/2 foot
To determine how much of the chain each member will make, we need to divide the total length of the chain by the number of members.
In this case, the chain is 4 feet long and there are 8 members. To find the length of each member's part, we divide 4 by 8:
4 feet รท 8 members = 0.5 feet
Therefore, each member will make a part of the chain that is 0.5 feet long.
