Meena cuts a 287-in. long ribbon into 2 pieces in the ratio 3 : 4. What is the length of the longer piece of ribbon? (ASAP) ​

Answer :

Answer:

164 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add 3 and 4

3+4= 7

Then divide 287 by 7

287/7= 41

Then, multiply 4 (from the ratio) by 41

4*41= 164

To get the length of the shorter piece, subtract 164 from 287

287-164= 123

Check your work:

123+164= 287

Hope this helps!
