How many 53/4 pieces of yarn can be cut from a roll that is 60 inches long? i really need

Divide the total length by the length of the pieces.

x= number of 53/4 pieces

x= 60 ÷ 53/4
to divide by the fraction, multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 53/4
x= 60 * 4/53
x= (60*4)/53
x= 240/53
x= 4 28/53 or 4.528

ANSWER: The roll can be cut into 4 pieces with a 28/53 piece leftover.

Hope this helps! :)

I’ll you if you answer my questions!
