Scott cuts a one meter long wire into five equal parts. What is the length of each part of the wire? (2 points) 0.02 centimeters 0.20 centimeters 20 centimeters 200 centimeters

Respuesta :

20 centimeters. 100 centimeters in a meter. 100/5= 20

Answer: The length of each part of the wire 20 centimeter.

Explanation:

Length of the wire =  1 m

On dissecting the 1 meter wire into equal five parts =[tex]\frac{1 m}{5}[/tex]

The length of the each part will be =[tex]\frac{1 m}{5}=0.2 m[/tex]

1 meter = 100 centimeter

So, 0.2 meter = [tex]0.2\times 100 centimeter=20 centimeter[/tex]

The length of each part of the wire 20 centimeter.
