Question

A ribbon of length 3meters is to be cut into strips of length 14centimeters. How many strips of lengths 14centimeters were cut? What length of ribbon remained?

Answer 1

21

6 CM REMAINED

Explanation:

Convert metre to centimetre

100 cm = 1 m

3 m = 3 x 100 = 300cm

strips cut = 300/14 = 21 would be cut with some remainders

Remainders = 300 - (14 x 21) = 6cm
