Kelly has 7 1/4 yards of rope. she cuts 3 inches off each end of the rope. kelly will divide the remaining rope into 5 equal pieces for a craft project. what will be the length of each piece of rope?

If you take 3 inches off each end, that means you will be taking 6 inches off. If you take 6 inches away from 7 1/4 yards ,(7 yards, 9 inches,) you get 7 1/12 yards (7 yards, 3 inches).

(7 1/12) / 5 = 1.426repeating

So each piece of rope will be (Approximately) 1.4 or 1 2/5 yards.

(I think.)

x =11

Step-by-step explanation:

XWY + YXZ = XWZ

5x+5  + 2x+8 = 90

Combine like terms

7x+ 13 = 90

Subtract 13 from each side

7x= 90-13

7x = 77

Divide by 7

7x/7 = 77/7

x = 11
