Answer:the greatest number of pieces that can be cut is 2

Explanation:

The total length of ribbon available is 3/4 meter. Sunday needs pieces measuring 1/3 meter for their project. This means that each length needed would be exactly 1/3 meter.

The number of pieces measuring 1/3 meter that can be cut from the ribbon would be

(3/4)/(1/3) = 3/4×3/1 = 9/4 = 2.25

Since the length needed is exactly 1/3 meter, the greatest number of pieces that can be cut will be 2
