Question

How many pieces of wood each 1/5m long can be cut from a piece of 3 long wood.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let us assume number of pieces of wood to be x.

Hence, by the given condition:

x = 3 ÷ 1/5

So:

3 × 5 = x

=> x = 15

Hence, 15 pieces of wood, each 1/5m long, can be cut from a piece of 3m long wooden log.

Hope this helped.
