Question

a 40 m long rope aap is cut into pieces of equal size. if the length of one piece is 4/5 m, find the total number of pieces​

Answer 1

Answer:

The total number of pieces of ropes is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

The rope is 40m long and cut into pieces of equal size such that the length of one piece is 4/5m.

Therefore, the number of pieces of the rope is (40×5/4)=50.

Answer 2

The total number of pieces is 50.

Given: A 40 m long rope is cut into pieces of equal size.

The length of one piece is 4/5 m.

To Find: The total number of pieces​.

Solution:

• We know that when the total length and length of one piece are given so we can find the number of pieces by the formula,

Total number of pieces = Total length of rope / length of one piece  ...(1)

Coming to the numerical,

Let the total number of pieces of equal size be 'x'.

The total length of rope = 40 m,

The length of one piece = 4/5 m.

So, putting respective values in (1), we get;

Total number of pieces = Total length of rope / length of one piece

⇒  x = 40 / (4/5)

⇒  x = 40 × 5/4

⇒  x = 50

Hence, the total number of pieces is 50.
