Michael cuts 5 shelves of equal length out of 3 1/3 yards of wood how long was each shelf

So we apply our knowledge of division.

Since the length of the wood is

yards and it has been cut into 5 shelves of equal length

We carry out the division as follows

Let us change the numerator in to improper fraction.

We can still rewrite to obtain,

We can change to division sign so we can see the fractions clearly. This implies that,

÷

Let us now multiply with the reciprocal

We simplify to obtain

Hence each self is

yards long

your answer is 228

step-by-step explanation:

add the top and bottom bases together, then divide them by 2, then multiply by the height.

30 units^2

step-by-step explanation:

area is l × w

the length is 3

and the width is 10

3 × 10= 30 units squared
