Question

A piece of string 25 1/2 inch long will be cut into 3/4 inches pieces how many pieces will there be

Answer 1

All we need to do is to find out how many 3/4-in-long parts will fit in a string of 25 1/2 in. To do that we can do the division:

25 1/2 ÷ 3/4 =
= 51/2 ÷ 3/4 =
= 51/2 * 4/3 =
= 17/2 * 4/1 =
= 17/2 * 4 =
= 68/2 =
= 34

Answer: There will be 34 piecies.

(I checked it also with calculator and it seems to be correct)

Answer 2

25.5/0.75 = 34 Pieces.

Hope this has helped.
