Question

A cloth of length 24 1/2 metres is cut into pieces, each of length 1 1/6
metres. How many such
pieces can be cut?
​

Answer 1

➤ Answer :-

Number of pieces can be cut :-

$\longmapsto \sf \: 24 \frac{1}{2} \div 1 \frac{1}{6}$

$\longmapsto \sf \: \frac{49}{2} \div \frac{7}{6}$

$\longmapsto \sf \: \frac{49}{2} \times \frac{6}{7}$

$\longmapsto \sf \: \frac{49 \times 6}{2 \times 7}$

$\longmapsto \sf \cancel \frac{294}{14} = \frac{21}{1} = 21$

$\Huge\therefore$21 pieces can be cut totally.
