Question

From a rope 44m long, as many pieces as possible are cut off each 5-m long. Find the
number of pieces and the length of the remaining rope.
​

Answer 1

there could be 8 pieces of 5m with 4m extra rope

it can be checked by counting 5 as sum of it 8 times. or 5*8 which is 40 means 40m hence you can also find the extra rope by the difference between the total rope and used rope which is 4m
