Question

A piece of rope 20 feet long is cut from a longer piece that is at least 32 feet long. The remainder is cut into four pieces of equal length. Describe the length of each of the four pieces.

Answer 1

3

Explanation:

32 - 20 = 12

12/4 = 3

This assumes that by remainder they mean they twelve feet left over and not the twenty feet removed. This is likely what it means.
