hope u got the answer......

Answer 2

Answer:

The length of the other piece is 14 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given informations,

Sanjana has 18 metre of ribbon she wants to cut into two pieces .Length of the first piece is 4m.

Now question is what is the length of the second piece.

Let length of the second piece be x m.

According to question,

$x + 4 = 18$

We are separating variable and constant part,

$x = 18 - 4$

We are subtracting 4 from 18,

$x = 14$

Therefore length of the other piece is 14 m.

Another method,

Given,

Total length of the ribbon is 18 m

and length of first piece is 4 m.

So,length of the other piece =(Total length of the ribbon - length of the first piece ) =(18-4)m=14m
