Option D
9 smaller pieces of string can be cut from Allan's string
Solution:
Given that,
Allan has a piece of string that is 5.4 meters in length
He needs some smaller pieces that are 0.6 meters in length
Therefore,
Total length of string = 5.4 meter
Length needed = 0.6 meter
Thus,
[tex]\text{ Number of pieces } = \frac{ \text{ Total length of string }}{ \text{ Length needed }}\\\\\text{ Number of pieces } = \frac{5.4}{0.6}\\\\\text{ Number of pieces } = 9[/tex]
Thus, 9 smaller pieces of string can be cut from Allan's string
