how many 2/3 cm can be cut from a 20 cm piece of ribbon
Answers
30 pieces can. be made
Step-by-step explanation:
Given ,
total length of ribbon= 20 cm
length of each piece is 2/3 cm
we need total number of pieces that can be made so,
we know that ,
total number of pieces=( total length)/(length of each -piece)
=> number of pieces= 20cm / (2/3)cm
= 30 pieces
therefore 30 pieces can be made
Solution :-
Let us assume that, total x pieces of (2/3) cm can be cut from a 20 cm piece of ribbon .
So,
→ Total piece * Length of one piece = Total length of piece of ribbon .
then,
→ x * (2/3) = 20
→ x = 20 ÷ (2/3)
→ x = 20 × (3/2)
→ x = 30 (Ans.)
Hence, 30 small pieces of length (2/3) cm can be cut from a 20 cm piece of ribbon .
