Yoshi has a rope 30 feet long. He must cut it into pieces that are 1/4 long. Will he get more or fewer than 30 pieces?
I think more because he will divide it. So I think he will get 120 pieces. Is this correct?
thx i need this for school
You're right. He'll get 120 pieces.
Yes, he will get 120 pieces
Thank you Ms.Sue I really needed this:).

To find out how many pieces Yoshi will get, we need to divide the length of the rope (30 feet) by the length of each piece (1/4 feet).
To divide a fraction, we can multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator.
In this case, we want to divide 30 by 1/4. So let's convert 1/4 to its reciprocal, which is 4/1.
Now, we can multiply 30 by 4/1:
30 * (4/1) = 120
So, Yoshi will indeed get 120 pieces, not 30.
Therefore, your correct answer is that Yoshi will get more than 30 pieces.
