Answer:

She cuts two parts; one of them measures 40 cm and the other measures 48 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio 5:6 means that she cut one part 5 units and the other 6 units. The units are the sum of both numbers, meaning here that she cud one piece 5/11 and the other 6/11. Doing the math,

88/11=8.   5x8=40.     6x8=48

Hope this helped you!! :D
