Answer 2

Given :

• Length of a Paper Clip = 2 4/5 cm

To find :

• the total length of 50 paper clips

Solution :

⇒ Let's find the Total length of 50 paper clips.

Length of a paper clip = 2 4/5

                                     = 5 × 2 + 4/5

                                     = 10 + 4/5

                                     = 14/5 cm

50 paper clips = 14/5 × 50

                        = 14/5 × 50/1

                        = 700/5

                        = 140 cm

Therefore, 140 cm of paper is required for 50 paper clip.
