Question

A rope of length 20 m is cut into two pieces. If one piece 6 m longer than the other piece, find their lengths.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the length of other piece = x m

Then Length of 1st piece = x + 6 m

x +(x +6) = 20m

2x = 20-6

2x = 14

x = 7m

length of 1st piece = 7m

length of 2nd piece = 13m

Answer 2

Answer:

x=7m

Step-by-step explanation:

x+(X+6)=20m

2x+6=20m

2x=20-6

2x=14

X=14/2

X=7m
