Asked by Molly-Please Help

I realize I'm actually very bad at math. Anyways, I need MORE help on my math homework.
An electrician has 4.1 meters of wire.
How many strips 7/10 m long can he cut?
Answer: 5 strips (I know this answer)
How much while will he have left over?
(The problem i'm having trouble with)
I think its 4 1/7 but I'm pretty sure it's wrong.


PLEASE HELP I'VE BEEN WORKING ON IT FOR HOURS!
