Answer 2

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of rope initially = L = 68 m

Length of piece of rope = l = 17/4 m

Number of pieces if rope = n

The number of small pieces totally must be equal to the initial length of the rope.

L = n(l) => 68 = 17n/4

17n = 272

n = 272/17 = 16

Therefore, 16 pieces of rope of length 17/4 m can be cut from a long rope of length 68 m.
