Dawn and Emily have equal lengths of ribbon.
Explanation
Since the problem states that Dawn and Emily each had the same length of ribbon, their ribbon lengths are equal. If we denote the common length as L, then Dawn’s length = L and Emily’s length = L. Without a numeric value for L, we cannot determine a specific measurement, only that both lengths are identical.
Key Points
- 1, The two ribbons have equal length (Dawn’s length equals Emily’s length).
- 2, A numeric value for the length requires additional information or measurement of L.
- 3, Any operation applied to both ribbons equally preserves equality (e.g., adding the same amount to both lengths).
