Question

Mrs. Cruz bought a loaf of bread it measure 20 inches long.How many slices can she make if each slice is 1/2 inch long?

Answer 1

Answer:

40 slices

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of slices be x

length of bread loaf = 20 inches

1 slice length = 1/2 =0.5

x slice length = 20

x = 20/0.5

x = 200/5

x = 40

Answer 2

Given :  Mrs. Cruz bought a loaf of bread it measure 20 inches long.

each slice is 1/2 inch long

To Find : How many slices can she make ?

Solution:

Assume that she can make  n slices

Length of one slice  =  1/2  inch

Length of n slices = n * 1/2 inch

=> Length of n slices = n/2  inches

Length of n slices = 20 inches

=>  n/2  = 20

Multiplying by 2 on both sides

=> 2 * n/2  = 2 * 20

=> n = 40

Hence She can make 40 slices
