Hey morelikeemarii !

Answer: Each will eat two pieces

[tex]{ \tt{perimeter = 2(length + width)}} \\ \\ { \tt{p = 2(5 + 4)}} \\ \\{ \tt{p = 2 \times 9}} \\ \\ { \tt{p = 18}}[/tex]

also:

[tex]{ \tt{area = length \times width}} \\ \\ { \tt{ = 5 \times 4 = 20}}[/tex]

• Therefore:

[tex] \dashrightarrow \: { \tt{ \frac{20}{10} = 2}}[/tex]
