Question

A pice of wood that is 3/4 meters long is being cut into smaller pieces that are each 1/10 meter long which equation could be solved to find the number pieces,n,that can be made

Answer 1

7

Explanation:

Answer 2

Length of the wood = 3/4,
Length of each smaller piece = 1/10 m

Number of pieces = n

n = 3/4 ÷ 1/10 ← Equation to solve n

n = 3/4 x 10/1

n = 30/4

n = 7 2/4

n = 7 1/2
