→wire length = 4 3/8 cm

                   = 35/8cm

→divided into pieces = 1 2/3 cm

                                 = 5/3

→now, find the reciprocal of 5/3 = 3/5

= 35/8*3/5

=105/40

→divide 105/40 from 5 =21/8

→finally, make 21/8 into mixed fraction as it is in improper fraction

= 2  5/8

∴THUS, WHEN THE WIRE IS DIVIDED AS 1  2/3  THERE ARE 2 5/8  PIECES
