Question

Reema has a ribbon of length 2 m. She cut 4/7 m from it. The 1 length of ribbon left with her will be:

Answer 1

Answer:

1.42 inch ribbon is left

Answer 2

Answer:

Total length, L = 2 m

She removed a portion of length, x = 4/7 m

length of ribbon left , y = ?

so, length of ribbon left + length removed = Total length

ie, x + y = L

4/7m + y = 2m

y = 2 - 4/7 m

y = (14 - 4)/7 m (took LCM)

y = 10/7 m or 1.4285 m (approx)

So the remaining length of ribbon = 10/7 m
