Answer 1

Длина большей части 15.
Длина меншей 3.

Answer 2

Calculating the Length of the Longer Rope

To calculate the length of the longer part of the rope, we can use the following formula: Length of longer part = Total length / (5 + 1)

Substituting the given total length of 18 meters, we get: Length of longer part = 18 / (5 + 1) = 18 / 6 = 3 meters

Therefore, the length of the longer part of the rope is 3 meters.

Explanation

The given rope of 18 meters was divided in the ratio of 5:1. This means that the rope was divided into 6 parts (5 parts for the longer piece and 1 part for the shorter piece). Therefore, to find the length of the longer part, we divide the total length by the sum of the parts in the ratio.
