Answer:

26.7 slices

Explanation:

We are told in the question that the length of a roll = 10cm long

The thickness of 1 slice = 3/8cm thick

The number of slices we can obtain from this roll is calculated as:

10cm ÷ 3/8

= 10 × 8/3

= 80/3

= 26.666666667 slices

Therefore, the number of slices he can cut approximately is 26.7 slices.
