Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. ✨the length of the wire =

$\frac{7}{8}$

✨ length of the one piece broken =

$\frac{1}{4}$

✨ length of the other piece of the ribbon =

$\frac{7}{8} - \frac{1}{4}$

$\frac{7 - 2}{8}$

$= \frac{5}{8}$

✨Therefore the length of the other piece of ribbon is

$\frac{5}{8} \: m$

2. ✨length of ribbon Rekha brought =

$\frac{3}{5}$

✨length of ribbon latta brought =

$\frac{3}{4}$

✨total length of both of their ribbon =

$\frac{3}{5} + \frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{12 + 15}{20}$

$= \frac{27}{20}$

✨Therefore the total length of both of their ribbon are

$\frac{27}{20} \: m$
