Question

A piece of wire is of length 1234 m. If it is cut into two pieces in such a way that the length of one piece is 514 m. What is the length of the other piece?

Answer 1

Hey.

Here is the answer.

Total length of the wire initially = 1234 m

After cutting the length of one piece=514 m

so, length of other piece = 1234 - 514 =720 m

Thanks.

Answer 2

Total length = length of 1st part + length of 2nd part

====================

Here,

1234 = 514 + length of 2nd part

1234 - 514 = length of 2nd part

720 =length of 2nd part


I hope this will help you
