A piece of ribbon is 3/5m long. If it is cut in to 4 piecs, how long is each piece?
( 3 / 5 ) / 4 = 3 / ( 5 * 4 ) = 3 / 20 m
Thanks
To find the length of each piece, we need to divide the total length of the ribbon by the number of pieces it is cut into. In this case, the ribbon is 3/5m long and it is cut into 4 pieces.
To perform the division, we can use the following formula:
Length of each piece = Total length of the ribbon / Number of pieces
Substituting the given values into the formula:
Length of each piece = 3/5m / 4 = (3/5) * (1/4)m = 3/20m
Therefore, each piece of the ribbon is 3/20 meters long.
