Given,
The length of thread which is needed for binding one book is 1.7 metres.
Total length of available thread is 44.2 metres.
To find,
The number of books that can be binded with the available length of thread.
Solution,
We have to calculate the number of books by using the following mathematical formula :
Number of books = Total length of thread/ Length of thread needed for binding one book
= 44.2 metres/1.7 metres
= 26
Hence,the number of books that can be binded is 26.
