Question

A thread of length 43 /4 m has to be cut into 8 pieces. find length of each piece ​

Answer 1

length 43/3

no of pieces 8

length of each peice 43/4/8

43*1/4*8=43/32m

Answer 2

Answer:

1.343

Step-by-step explanation:

length of thread is 43/4 m and is cut into 8 pieces .Therefore, 43/4 is divide by  8.So,

(43/4)  /  8

the rule says that the divisor must be changed to its reciprocal and both the numbers are multiplied

43/4  *   1/8

no cutting is possible so direct multiplication is held numerator by numerator and denominator by denominator.

43*1=43

4*8=32

and both the no are divided

43/32

and the quotient of this question is the length of each piece

ANS = 1.343

Therefore ,the length of each piece is 1.343 m .
