Question

how many pieces of length 3 3 by 4 metre can be cut from a rope of length 60 metre​

Answer 1

Answer:

8 pieces can be cut.

Exaplantion

Length of rope = 30m

Length of piece cut =

3 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{(4 \times 3) + 3}{4} = \frac{15}{4} m \\

number \: of \: pieces \: that \: can \: be \: cut \: = \frac{length \: of \: rope}{length \: of \: piece \: cut} \\ = \frac{30}{ \frac{15}{4} } \\ = 30 \times \frac{1}{ \frac{15}{4}} \\ = 30 \times \frac{4}{15} \\ = 15 \times 2 \times \frac{4}{15} \\ = 4 \times 2 \\ = 8
