From the first length he cuts a piece 1.4m long and a piece 1.2m long.

Step-by-step explanation:
Length of 1st wood= 3m
Length of 2nd wood = 3m
The length of wood he cuts from 1st wood = 1.4 + 1.2
=2.6m
The length of wood he cuts from 2nd wood = 1.35 + 1.6
=2.95m
Wood left from 1st wood = 0.4m
wood left from 2nd wood = 0.05m
Total wood left = 0.4 + 0.05
= 0.45m
