Problem page a pipe is 30 feet long. it needs to be cut into pieces that are each 23 feet long. how many pieces can be made from the pipe?
Answer:
You can only make one piece of that pipe.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, take the total amount of pipe and divide it by the section that you need.
30ft/23ft = 1.3 pieces
Since .3 pieces is not a full piece, we disregard that amount and say that you can only make one piece.
