Apiece of wood that is 3/4 meter long is being cut into smaller pieces that are each 1/10 meter long. which equation could be solved as the first step to find the number of pieces, n, that can be made?

Since the smaller pieces are all equal.

Then, X1=X2=X3...=1/10.

Therefore, the sum of the whole pieces should give you 3/4 back.

X1+X2+X3...=3/4

Therefore, (3/4÷n)=1/10

where n is the number of all the pieces.

I hope this helps

i agree because i see the other persons thinking is clear
