pf the other piece.​

Answer 1

Hello, Buddy!!

Given:-

• Riya has a rope of length 36m.
• Rope was cut it into two pieces such that the length of one piece is 4 m longer than the other.

To Find:-

• Length of two pieces.

Required Solution:-

Let,

Length of small piece be 'x'

Then, Length of the second piece will be (x+4)cm.

According To The Sum

→ x+(x+4) = 36

→ 2x = 36-4

→ x = 32/2

→ x = 16cm

• Length of Small Piece ☞ 16cm

Substituting the value of x = 16cm

→ x+4

→ x+16

→ 20cm

• Length of Long Piece ☞ 20cm

Answer 2

GIVEN :-

• Length of Rope = 36 m
• Rope was parted into two parts such that one piece is 4 m longer than other.

TO FIND :-

• Length of both divided parts of ropes.

SOLUTION :-

Let, the length of small part be $\sf x$.

⇒ Length of second part will be $\sf y$.

The value of $\sf y$ is given,

$\sf \blue{y = (x + 4)m}$

According to the question,

→ $\sf x + (x + 4) = 36m$

→ $\sf 2x + 4= 36$

→ $\sf 2x = 36 - 4$

→ $\sf 2x = 32$

→ $\sf x = \frac{32}{2}$

→ $\sf \fbox \orange{x = 16m}$

☞ Therefore, Length of small piece is 16m.

Substituting the value of $\sf x$ in the equation of second part.

→ $\sf y = x + 4$

→ $\sf y = 16 + 4$

→ $\sf \fbox \orange{y = 20m}$

Therefore the length of larger part is 20m.

Hence,

• Smaller Part = 16m
• Larger Part = 20m
