a piece of wood 35 ft 6 inches long was used to make 4 shelves of equal length the length of each shelf was
divide : )
or, 35' 6" = 32' 42"
Now when you divide by 4, you get 8' 10 1/2"
Let's break this down! We have a piece of wood that is 35 ft 6 inches long and we want to make 4 shelves of equal length.
First, let's convert the length of the piece of wood into inches. Since 1 foot is equal to 12 inches, we can calculate the total length in inches:
35 ft * 12 inches/ft + 6 inches = 420 inches + 6 inches = 426 inches
Now, we need to divide the length of the wood by the number of shelves to find the length of each shelf:
426 inches / 4 shelves = 106.5 inches
Therefore, the length of each shelf would be 106.5 inches.
To find the length of each shelf, you'll need to divide the total length of the wood by the number of shelves.
First, convert the length of the wood into a single unit. Since we have both feet and inches, let's convert everything to inches.
35 ft is equal to 35 * 12 = 420 inches.
Now add the 6 inches to get the total length in inches: 420 + 6 = 426 inches.
Next, divide the total length by the number of shelves (4) to find the length of each shelf:
426 inches / 4 shelves = 106.5 inches
Therefore, the length of each shelf is 106.5 inches.
