Question

Matthew had to make a bridge for his math class. It had to be at least 1 1/2 feet long. Harold made a bridge that was 2 1/3 times as long as Matthew’s. What equation would you use to find out how long Harold’s bridge is?
Help or sad :(

Answer 1

-Hii!-

See below :)

Known:

• 2 and 1/3 has long
• needs to be 1 2/2

Lets re-read the text. We need to find key words to see what we need to solve.. Words such has "It had to be at least 1 1/2 feet long. Harold made a bridge that was 2 1/3 times as long as Matthew’s. " Tells us its a subtraction problem.

Lets do the math :)↓↓↓

• 1 and 1/3 minus 2 and 1/3 is 5/6

Hope this helps :D
