Question

A piece of wire 9/13 metre long broke into two pieces. One-piece was 1/7 metre
long. How long is the other piece?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

total length of wire = 9/13 m

after broken into two pieces, one piece length=1/7m

let length of other piece=x

now x+1/7= 9/13

x=9/13-1/7

after taking LCM we get:-

x= (9-1)/91

x=8/91 m

hence the other piece will be 8/91 m long.
