I'll solve a similar problem:if a plank of wood is 220cm long . I cut it into 14cm pieces. what length of wood I have left over?It seems easy but I just cannot find the method. sorry
Amazing , it does make sense. I divided 220 by 14 but the result was 15.7 that made me wonder .thank youuuI'll solve a similar problem:
I have 200 $ in my pocket. I want to purchase several pens worth 6$ each. How many pens (maximum) can I buy with the money (in my pocket) and how much money will be left over?
# of pens that I can buy = 200/6 = 33 + fraction
Cost of 33 pens (money) spent = 33*6 = 198 $
Money left in my pocket= 200 - 198 = 2 $
Follow the same procedure.....
Why did that make you wonder ?Amazing , it does make sense. I divided 220 by 14 but the result was 15.7 that made me wonder .thank youuu
