of 5m each, now how many piceses will be made?

answer it fast I want to write paper ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

850 cm ÷ 500 cm = 1.7 pieces

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

A wire is of 8m 50 cm long

To find:-

How many piceses will be made when a wire is 8m 50 cm long is cut into piceses of 5m each?

Solution:-

Given that.

Length of the given wire = 8 m 50 cm

We know that

1 m = 100 cm

8 m = 800 cm

8 m 50 cm = 800 cm +50 cm = 850 cm

Now

The length of the piece = 5 m = 500 cm

Let the number of pieces be n

Total length of the n pieces = 500 n cm

=> 500 n = 850

=> n = 850/500

=> n = 85/50

=> n = 17/10

=> n = 1.7

Number of pieces is natural number

So required number of pieces = 1

remaining length of the wire = 850-500 = 350 cm

=> 3 m 50 cm

Answer:-

The total number of pieces will be made form the given wire with 5m length each = 1
