Given

A long ribbon of length 51/2 m.

To Find

The number of pieces each of length 3/4 m can be cut out from the given 51/2 m long ribbon.

Solution

For the required number of small pieces of the ribbon, we need to divide the length of the long ribbon by the given length of each small piece obtained by cutting it.

→ No. of pieces that can be cut, N = 51/2 ÷ 3/4

→ N = 51/2 × 4/3

→ N = (51 × 4) / (2 × 3)

→ N = 17 × 2

→ N = 34

Therefore, 34 pieces each of length 3/4 m can be cut out from a 51/2 m long ribbon.
