Question

Aaron has a 28.7 m length of rope. He uses 6.7 m of the rope

to make a rope ladder for a playground. He cuts the remaining
rope into 2 equal pieces to make tire swings. How long is each
tire swing rope?

Answer 1

first step is to minus 28.7 - 6.7=22 (I did the minus because I want to get the remaining length of the rope )

step 2 : is to divide 22 by 2 (because the question said they should divide it into two pieces )

then the answer you get from the division of 22/2 which is 11 that would be the final answer

meaning each tire swing is 11m
