debbie cut a cord into sixths . she used five of the pieces to make necklaces. she used equal lenghts of the remaining cord for each of four bracelets. what fraction of the original cord did debbie use for each bracelet

Respuesta :

So she used 5/6 of the cord to make necklaces.

1 - 5/6 = 1/6
She splits the 1/6  length into 4 equal lengths.
To divide a fraction by a fraction, you multiply it by its reciprocal.
1/6 (1/4)
= 1/24

She used 1/24  of the original chord to make each bracelet.
