there will be 34 pieces

25 1/2= 25.5

Given situation
=> A piece of string is said to have a measurement of 25 and ½ inches long.
=> It will be cut in ¾
Question: How many pieces of string will there be?
Solutions:
=> 25 and ½ = 25. 50 inches long
=> ¾ = .75 inches long
Let’s start the division to get the answer that we need:
=> 25.5 / .75
=> 34, thus there will be 34 pieces of cut string which measures 0.75 inches long.
