Because 1/2 ≠ 1/6.
We know that 1/6 < 1/2, so we can set up an equation to see how many copies are needed for them to be equal.
(1/6)x = 1/2
[(1/6)x] × 6 = [1/2] × 6
x = 6/2 = 3
This equation shows that 1/6 × 3 = 1/2, therefore we need 3 copies of 1/6 to equal 1 copy of 1/2.

Here you're being asked to find the "perimeter" of the space, even tho' the problem doesn't specifically ask for it.
The formula for P is P = 2W + 2L.
Here the width, W, is 3 1/2 yds, and the length, L, is 4 2/3 yds. Subbing these two values into the formula for P (above) results in:
P = 2(3 1/2 yds) + 2(4 2/3 yds)
= 7 yds + 9 1/3 yds = 16 1/3 yds, total.
Add 37 + 9 = 46
If thats not your answer theres more.
46 divided by 5 = 9.2
Answer:
It took Markus half an hour to drive home from work. He averaged 34 miles per hour. How far does Markus live from his work?
Solution
We are given that it takes 1/2 an hour for the trip. This is a time:
t = 1/2
We are given that he averages 34 miles per hour. This is a rate:
r = 34
We are asked how few he has traveled. This is a distance. We use the d=rt equation:
d = rt
= (34)(1/2)
= 17
Markus lives 17 miles from work.
