Ted weighs partly used spools to estimate the length of cable that remains. He knows that 1 metre of lighting cable weighs 85 grams, and that an empty spool weighs 260 grams. Ted weighs the partly used spool shown. It has a total weight 1540 grams.

Which of these calculations will give Ted an estimate of the number of metres of cable left on the spool?

A) 1540–260÷85

B) (1540–260)÷85

C) (1540+260)÷85

D) (1540÷85)–260
