Final answer:
The roll of string is divided into 676 places.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given question is asking for the number of places a roll of string is divided into, given the total length of the string and the length of each piece.
To find the number of places, we need to subtract the total length of the string by the length of the initial 13.5 meters and then divide the remaining length by the length of each piece (32 cm).
Let's calculate:
Remaining length = Total length of the string - Length of initial 13.5 meters
Remaining length = 230.1 m - 13.5 m
= 216.6 m
Number of places = Remaining length ÷ Length of each piece
Number of places = 216.6 m ÷ 0.32 m
Number of places = 676.875
Since we can't have a fraction of a place, we round down to the nearest whole number.
Number of places = 676
