Question

A piece of wire 7/8 metre long broke into two pieces one piece was 1/4 metre long how long is the other piece?​

Answer 1

• Total length of the wire = ⅞ metres
• First peice length = ¼ metres
• Second peice length = X metres

So equation will be like this :–

X + ¼ = ⅞ metres

X = ⅞ – ¼ metres

X = ⅝ metres

So, the length of the second peice is ⅝ or 0.625 metres.
