Question

You want to place a towel bar that is 10 1⁄4 inches long in the center of a door that is 26 1⁄3 inches wide. How far should you place the bar from each edge of the door?

Answer 1

bar is 10 1/4" so center would be 10 1/4 / 2 = 5 1/8"

door is 26 1/3" so center would be 26 1/3 / 2 =13 1/6

13 1/6 - 5 1/8 = 8 1/24 inches from the edge
