Question

Bhargava had a piece of Ribbon 27/4 metre long he used 29/12 from how much ribbon
was left with her​

Answer 1

Given:

(i) Bhargava had a piece of Ribbon 27/4 metre with him.

(ii) He used 29/12 m from it. (Assuming this because in the question, it is not clearly mentioned whether he used 29/12 m from it or 29/12th part of it. So, assuming the former.)

To find:

(i) How much ribbon was left.

Solution:

Initially, the length of the rope Bhargava has with himself = 27/4 m.

Length of rope used by him already = 29/12 m.

Therefore, length of rope remaining = (Initial length - Length used)

= (27/4 - 29/12)m

= (81-29)/12 m

= 52/12 m

= 13/3 m

So, Bhargava has 13/3 m of rope still left with him.
