Question

A ribbon is 4 m long. How many pieces each 30 cm long can be cut from the ribbon?​

Answer 1

13

Explanation:

4 meters is equal to 400 centimeters.

400/30 = 13 1/3

You don't want partial pieces, so your answer is 13

Answer 2

13 pieces

Explanation:

First we convert 4m into cm :

1m = 100cm

4m = 400cm

Now we need to figure out how many 30s go into 400 :

400 ÷ 30 = 13 remainder 10

So 13 pieces can be cut from the ribbon

Hope this helped and have a good day
