A piece of rope 6.3 meters long is cut into 9 equal pieces. How long is each piece of rope?
Well first you would divide 6 into 9 and then divide .3 into 9
Hope this helps :D
6.3 divided by 9 = ?
0.7
6.3 / 9 = 6.3 ∙ 10 / 9 ∙ 10 = ( 63 / 9 ) ∙ 1 / 10 = 7 ∙ 1 / 10 = 7 / 10 = 0.7
To find the length of each piece of rope, you need to divide the total length of the rope by the number of equal pieces it is cut into. In this case, the total length of the rope is 6.3 meters and it is cut into 9 equal pieces.
To find the length of each piece of rope, you can use the formula:
Length of each piece = Total length of the rope / Number of equal pieces
Plugging in the values:
Length of each piece = 6.3 meters / 9 equal pieces
Now divide 6.3 by 9:
Length of each piece = 0.7 meters
Therefore, each piece of rope will be 0.7 meters long.
