jester has a piece of wood measuring 1 and 2/3 m.he needs to cut in pieces measuring 3/4 m long.how many pieces of wood did jest
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

2 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length = 1\frac{2}{3}m

Pieces = \frac{3}{4}m

Required

Calculate the number of pieces

To do this, we have to divide the length of the wood by the length of each piece.

Represent this with x

x= \frac{Length}{Pieces}

x= 1\frac{2}{3}/\frac{3}{4}

Convert mixed numbers to improper fraction

x= \frac{5}{3}/\frac{3}{4}

Change division to multiplication

x= \frac{5}{3}*\frac{4}{3}

x= \frac{20}{9}

x = 2.22

<em></em>x = 2<em> </em>
