Answer:
16 pieces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of a metal rod = \(\frac{4}{5}\) meters
This rod is cut in small pieces of length = \(\frac{1}{20}\) meters
To calculate the number of pieces of the rod we will use the formula
Length of the rod = number of pieces × length of one piece
\(\frac{4}{5}\) = \(\frac{1}{20}\) × length of one piece
Length of piece = \(\frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{20}}\)
= \((\frac{4}{5})\times \frac{20}{1}\)
= \(\frac{4\times 20}{5}\)
= 16 pieces
Therefore, 16 pieces can be made from the rod.
