Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to recall that a whole part when divided to n equal parts of length m , then the number of equal parts 'n' is calculated by whole part / m
Given:
Length of wood bought by Eric - 8.25m
Length of wood bought by Adam - 9.6m
Length of wood bought by Eric after cutting - 0.75m
Length of wood bought by Adam after cutting - 0.8m
Calculation:
Number of pieces that Eric has = 8.25/0.75 = 11
Number of pieces that Adam has = 9.6/0.8=12
From the above, we can say that Adam has more pieces of wood than Eric
