The number of 3/4 -meter pieces can Joe see from the wooden plank will be 5.
A ratio is an ordered pair of integers a and b expressed as a/b, with b never equaling 0.
Given data in problem is;
The length of the wooden plank is, [tex]\rm l =3 \frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Let x be the 3/4 -meter pieces can Joe see from the wooden plank.
According to the given condition, Joe wants to saw a wooden plank into 3/4 -meter pieces
The pieces can Joe sees from the wooden plank are found as;
x = Length of the wooden plank/length of a piece of wooden plank
[tex]\rm x = \frac{3 \frac{3}{4}}{\frac{3}{4}} \\\\ x = \frac{\frac {15}{4}}{\frac{3}{4}} \\\\ x= \frac{15}{4} \times \frac{4}{3}\\\\ x =5[/tex]
Hence, the number of 3/4 -meter pieces can Joe see from the wooden plank will be 5.
