Question

8.5 by 11 rectangle folded in half. What is the length of the long side

Answer 1

I guess it sort of depends on whether you are folding the rectangle in half "long-ways" or "short-ways", however, if the rectangle is folded "long-ways", then the length of the new long side would be 5.5, with the shorter end being 4.25, or just 4.2.

Hope this helps!
