a string of length 9/10 is cut into 6 equal pieces. What is the length of 2 of the pieces
each piece is (9/10)/6 = 9/10 * 1/6 = 9/60 = 3/20
so, 2 pieces have length 2 * 3/20 = 6/20 = 3/10
Convert 9/10 to a decimal, 0.9! Then divide! 0.9 divided by 6 = 0.15! So the length of 2 of the species is 0.30! Then, covert 0.30 into a fraction! 0.30 = 3/10! Answer: 3/10

To find the length of two pieces, we need to determine the length of each piece first.
We are given that the string's length is 9/10, and it is cut into 6 equal pieces.
To find the length of each piece, we divide the total length of the string by the number of pieces:
Length of each piece = Total length of the string / Number of pieces
In this case, the total length of the string is 9/10, and it is divided into 6 equal pieces:
Length of each piece = 9/10 / 6
To divide a fraction by a whole number, we can multiply the fraction by the reciprocal of the whole number. The reciprocal of 6 is 1/6.
Length of each piece = 9/10 * 1/6
Multiplying fractions is done by multiplying the numerators together and multiplying the denominators together:
Length of each piece = (9 * 1) / (10 * 6)
= 9/60
= 3/20
So, the length of each piece is 3/20.
To find the length of two pieces, we multiply the length of one piece by 2:
Length of two pieces = Length of each piece * 2
Length of two pieces = 3/20 * 2
Multiplying a fraction by a whole number is done by multiplying the numerator by the whole number:
Length of two pieces = (3 * 2) / 20
= 6/20
= 3/10
Therefore, the length of two pieces is 3/10.
