Answer:
The thread is to be divided into pieces of 1/2m each.
The total length of thread is 13/2m.
To obtain the answer, we shall divide 13/2 by 1/2
13/2÷1/2
13/2×2 (Reciprocal since we are multiplying)
The 2 of 13/2 and the other 2 will get cancelled as one is in the numerator and the other is in the denominator.
We are now left with 13.
Therefore, 13 pieces of thread can be cut of 1/2m each.
