Question

A rope is 10 meters long, I need to cut it into pieces that are each 2/9 meters long, how many pieces can I have without any rope leftover?

Answer 1

45

Explanation:

You want the number of pieces that can be made from a 10 m rope if each piece is 2/9 m.

Divide

The number of pieces can be found from ...

(10 m)/(2/9 m/piece) = 10·(9/2) pieces = 45 pieces

You can have 45 pieces of rope.
