Question #02609

Answer 1

The answer is `16 * 4 = 64` inches.

Explanation:

If the rope is being cut into fourths, it is being cut into `4` pieces. We know each piece is `16` inches.

To find the length of the whole rope, we could put all `4` pieces back together.

There are `4` pieces and each piece is `16` inches. So we multiply
`4 xx 16` and we get `64` inches.

If you wanted your answer in feet, you would divide `64` by `12` because there are `12` inches in a foot. You would get about `5.3` feet.
