12. From a rope 68 m long, pieces of equal size are cut. If length of one piece is 4/14 m, find the number of such pieces.

Explain step by step

hope this helps (sorry for messy handwriting!)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to count how many times does 4/14 fit inside 68. To do so, we have to perform a division:

But dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying the inverse of that fraction:

So, divide 68 by 4 and then multiply the result by 14 to get the number of pieces you can cut.

step-by-step explanation:

6.48/4 4 goes into 6.48 1.62 times
