Answer 2

Answer:

$2\frac{2}{9}$ m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the other piece be x.

According to the question,

⇒ $x+1\frac{2}{3} =3\frac{8}{9}$

⇒ $x = 3\frac{8}{9} -1\frac{2}{3}$                                                           (Transposing $+1\frac{2}{3}$ to the RHS)

⇒ $x=\frac{35-15}{9}$                                                               (Subtracting $1\frac{2}{3}$ from $3\frac{8}{9}$)

⇒ $x = \frac{20}{9} = 2\frac{2}{9}$

Here is your answer... Hope it helps
