Question

how many squares of side seven centimetre can be cut from a rectangular strip of dimensions 35 by 21​

Answer 1

Answer:

15 squares

Step-by-step explanation:

length of rectangle= 35 cm

breadth of rectangle= 21 cm

area of rectangle= length*breadth

                            =35*21

                            =735 cm²

side of square= 7 cm

area of square= side²

                        = 7²

                        =49 cm²

no of squares that can be cut = area of rectangle

                                                     area of square

                                                  = 735/49

                                                  =15 squares
