Lana needs two strips of metal for an art project.She has a piece that is 5/12 foot long.She needs the second piece to be longer than the first.Which fraction could be the length of the second piece of metal?

Respuesta :

Answer: The required fraction would be

[tex]\dfrac{6}{12},\dfrac{7}{12},..............etc[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of first piece = [tex]\dfrac{5}{12}\ feet[/tex]

She needs the second piece longer than the first,

So, the length of second piece would be

[tex]x>\dfrac{5}{12}[/tex]

So, it can be

[tex]\dfrac{6}{12},\dfrac{7}{12},\dfrac{8}{12},.........[/tex]

Hence, the required fraction would be

[tex]\dfrac{6}{12},\dfrac{7}{12},..............etc[/tex]
