Example 7 Neenu has 29 metres of red ribbon and wants to share it equally with Anu. What is the length of ribbon that each of them will get?Given Total length = 29 m And, we need to share it amongst 2 people Thus, Length of ribbon each will get = (๐๐๐ก๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐กโ)/(๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐) = ๐๐/๐ m Now, to divide this, we make denominator 10, 100, 1000โฆ So, we to solve this, we multiply and divide by 5 (as 2 ร 5 = 10) 29/2=๐๐/๐ ร๐/๐ =(29 ร 5)/(2 ร 5) =(29 ร 5)/10 = 29 ร 5 ร ๐/๐๐ = 145 ร 1/10 = 14.5 m Thus, each person will get 14.5 m of ribbon
