Hernan cuts a board that is 710 of a meter long After the cut the board is 310 of a meter long how long is the piece that he cut of class=

Respuesta :

the answer is  it was 2/5 meters long

Given that original lenght of the board before cut [tex] = \frac{7}{10} [/tex]meter

Lenght of the board that is left after cutting from the original piece by Hernan [tex] = \frac{3}{10} [/tex]meter


Now we have to find the lenght of the piece which is cut.

To find that we just need to subtract smaller piece from larger piece


Required Length [tex] = \frac{7}{10}-\frac{3}{10} [/tex]meter

Required Length [tex] = \frac{7-3}{10} [/tex]meter

Required Length[tex] = \frac{4}{10} [/tex]meter

reduce the fraction

Required Length [tex] = \frac{2}{5} [/tex]meter


Hence final answer is [tex] \frac{2}{5} [/tex] meter.
