7/10 m= 0.7 m
4.1÷0.7=5.85
You would round down 5.85 to just 5, because he cannot cut less than a whole strip.
To find the exact amount of wire used in 5 strips:
5×0.7= 3.5
4.1-3.5= 0.6 m will be leftover.
A mixed number is a number with a fraction, like: 2 3/4ths for instance.
Take 83/30 and find what you have left:
30 goes into 83 two times, giving you 60. This leaves you with:
2 23/30 as an answer.
I hope this helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^

Divide total bought by 3 and multiply by 20cents:
210/3 = 70
70 x 0.20 = $14.00
