​

Answer 1

Given:

5 meters of ribbon cut off from 15 meters of ribbon. What part will be remaining?

To find:

What part will be remaining?

Solution:

The total length of the ribbon = 15 m

The length of the ribbon cut off from the 15 m ribbon = 5 m

∴ The length of the remaining ribbon = 15 m - 5 m = 10 m

Now,

The fraction of the remaining ribbon will be,

= $\frac{Length \:of\: the\: remaining\: ribbon}{Total \:length\: of\: the \:ribbon}$

= $\frac{10}{15}$

= $\bold{\frac{2}{3}}$

Thus, the length of the remaining ribbon is $\underline{\bold{\frac{2}{3} rd}}$ of 15 m ribbon.
