Answer 2

Given,

Length of first piece of rope $\[ = \frac{{11}}{6}m\]$

Length of second piece of rope $\[ = \frac{{14}}{6}m\]$

Total length of the rope $\[ = 12m\]$

Solution,

Calculate the length of the remaining rope.

$\[ = 12 - \left( {\frac{{11}}{6} + \frac{{14}}{6}} \right)\]$

$\[ = 12 - \left( {\frac{{25}}{6}} \right)\]$

$\[ = \frac{{12 \times 6 - 25}}{6}\]$

$\[ = \frac{{72 - 25}}{6}\]$

$\[ = \frac{{47}}{6}m\]$

Hence the length of the remaining rope is $\[ \frac{{47}}{6}m\]$.
