Answer:

there are more magnets that  longer than 2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

Please have a look at the attached photo.  

My answer:

From the photo, we can see that:

Length of the magnet:

  • 1 inch there is 1 magnet
  • [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex] inches there are 2 magnets
  • 2 inches there are 3 magnets
  • 3 inches there are 4 magnets
  • [tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex] there is 1 magnet
  • 4 inches there are 2 magnets

=> the total number of magnets that  longer than 2 1/2 are: 4+1+2 = 7

=> the total number of magnets that  shorter than 2 1/2 are: 1+2+3 = 6

Hence, there are more magnets that  longer than 2 1/2

Hope it will find you well.
