Answer:
Each board is (4/25) meters long = 0.16 meters long
Step-by-step explanation:
The board is 4/5 meters long, and he needs to cut 5 equal pieces, so we need to divide 4/5 of a meter in 5 parts.
This mathematically becomes: 4/5 divided by 5 which by the definition of division of rational numbers, is the same as :
4/5 times the reciprocal of 5 = (4/5) * (1/5) = (4/25) = 0.16 meters each board
Answer:
If it's 2 foot pieces to be cut, it will be (A) 18 pieces
-2 = -(x-8)
-2 = -x + 8 ( - * + = - and - * - = + )
-2 - 8 = -x +8 - 8
-2 - 8 = -x
-(2+8) = - x
-10 = -x | * (-1)
x=10
If the bedroom is 6 times as square feet as his closet then (36/6=6) his closet has an area of 6 sqft.
6/3=2
the length of the closet it 2
