What is length?

Length is a measure of distance. In the International System of Amounts, length is a volume with dimension distance. In utmost systems of dimension a base unit for length is chosen, from which all other units are deduced.
Length is generally understood to mean the most extended dimension of a fixed object. still, this isn't always the case and may depend on the position the object is in.
Varied terms for the length of a fixed object are used, and these include height, which is the perpendicular length or perpendicular extent, and range, breadth, or depth. Height is used when there's a base from which perpendicular measures can be taken. range or breadth generally relates to a shorter dimension when the length is the longest one.

220 / 14 gives us 15.

You have to understand that this means 15 whole 14 cm pieces and a Length of 1 piece.

thus 14 * 15 = 210

So 220- 210 = 10

where you know 220- 210 is< 15

Hence, The correct Length is 10cm.
