A screwdriver is 20 centimeters long, and a piece of wire is 10 millimeters long. The screwdriver is how many times as long as t
Novay_Z [31]

Answer: 20 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of piece of wire = 10 millimeters

The length of screwdriver = 20 centimeters

We know that 1 cm = 10 mm

Therefore, the  length of screwdriver = 20\times10=200 millimeters

The ratio of the length of screwdriver and length of wire is given by :-

\frac{\text{length of screwdriver}}{\text{length of piece of wire}}=\frac{200}{10}=20

The screwdriver is 20 times as long as the wire.
