Each section should be one third of the total width.

@wilsondanielle can u show how u got the answer

OpenStudy (wilsondanielle):

It's just a word problem. If you fold an 11 inch long paper into thirds, and the thirds are even, then each section must be 1/3 of the total length. Therefore, in this case each section should be 11/3 inches long.

11/3 inches, or 3 2/3 Inches. |dw:1452050989991:dw|
