Question

The length of a rope is 9m . How many pieces of 5/2 cm can be cut out of it.

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

total length of rope = 9m

length of each piece = 5/2m

number of pieces = 9/(5/2)

= (9*2)/5

= 18/5

= 3.6m

therfore 3 pieces of rope cut out of rope of 9m of length 5/2 m with 60cm extra.
