Since the rope is 8 meters long you will need to divide to find out how many 2/5 meter pieces can be cut from it.
So 8 divided by 2/5 will equal 20
Dividing is like multiplying
8 2 8 5
-- / --- = --- x ---
1 5 1 2

8 times 5 = 40 and 1 times 2 = 2, so it is 40 over 2
which is also equal to 20

AA ream of paper contains 500 sheets per paper Norm has 373 sheets of paper left from the rim express the portion of the rim Nor

marusya05 [52]

First to see how Much Norm used, we need to subtract 373 from 500 (500-373) and you get 127. To express this as a fraction you put 127 over 500. then the decimal would be 127 divided into 500. Which is .254 . The answer in fraction form is 127/500 and in decimal is .254
