A sheet of paper 30 cm long and 20 CM broad how many square pieces of Side 2 cm can be cut from the sheet of paper
Answers
The number of square pieces that can be cut from the sheet of paper is 150.
Given: A sheet of paper is 30 cm long and 20 cm broad. Each side of the square piece is 2 cm.
To Find: The number of square pieces that can be cut from the sheet of paper.
Solution:
We know that if we are given the total quantity and value of each of the quantities, then we can find the number of quantities using the formula,
Number of quantities = Total value of all the quantities / Value of each
Coming to the numerical, we are given;
The length of the paper = is 30 cm
The breadth of the paper = is 20 cm
∴ the total area of the paper = ( 30 × 20 ) cm²
= 600 cm²
The length of each side of the square piece = 2 cm
∴ the area of each square piece = ( 2 × 2 ) cm²
= 4 cm²
Now, as said earlier, the number of square pieces that can be cut from the sheet of paper can be calculated by,
Number of square pieces = Total area / Area of each square
= 600 / 4
= 150
Hence, the number of square pieces that can be cut from the sheet of paper is 150.
