How many mashes are there in 1 square meter of wire gauge if each mesh is 8mm long and 5mm wide ? with explanation?
Answers
Length of the square wire gauge = 1m
..............................................................................................................
STEP 1: Convert 1m to mm
1m = 100 cm = 1000 mm
...............................................................................................................
STEP 2: Find the number of meshes lengthwise:
Length of a mesh is 8mm
Number of meshes that can fit the length = 1000 ÷ 8 = 125
...............................................................................................................
STEP 3: Find the number of meshes breadthwise:
Breadth of a mesh = 5mm
Number of meshes that can fit the length = 1000 ÷ 5 = 200
...............................................................................................................
STEP 4: Find the total number of meshes:
Total number of meshes = 125 x 200 = 25000
..............................................................................................................
Answer: The wire gauge can fit 25 000 meshes.
