you have 1.6 metres of rope, you cut off 3 lengths of metre and 5 hundreths of a metre off the rope. How long is the rope now?

Sagot :

Answer:

Given:

- Initial length of rope:

[tex]\(1.6 \, \text{metres}\)[/tex]

- Length cut off:

[tex]\(3 \, \text{metres} + 0.05 \, \text{metres} = 3.05 \, \text{metres}\)

[/tex]

Solution:

Remaining length of rope:

[tex]\(1.6 \, \text{metres} - 3.05 \, \text{metres} = -1.45 \, \text{metres}\)[/tex]

Hence, since the length cut off is greater than the initial length, the resulting length is negative, indicating that there isn't enough rope to cut that much.
