The length of each piece is 29.53 cm if rope is cut into 10 pieces
The length of each piece is 2.953 cm if rope is cut into 10^2 pieces
The quotient are same only the placement of decimal is changed due to the divisor. Dividing by a larger number makes the quotient smaller
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Length of rope = l = 293.5 cm
When the rope is divided in 10^1 pieces
[tex]l_1 = \frac{l}{10} = \frac{293.5}{10} = 29.53\ cm[/tex]
Dividing the rope in 10^2 equal pieces
[tex]l_2 = \frac{l}{10^2} = \frac{293.5}{100} = 2.935\ cm[/tex]
Hence,
The length of each piece is 29.53 cm if rope is cut into 10 pieces
The length of each piece is 2.953 cm if rope is cut into 10^2 pieces
The quotient are same only the placement of decimal is changed due to the divisor. Dividing by a larger number makes the quotient smaller
