To determine how many 1.25-meter pieces you can cut from a 35-meter cable, you can divide the total length of the cable by the length of each piece:

\[
\text{Number of pieces} = \frac{\text{Total Length of Cable}}{\text{Length of Each Piece}} = \frac{35}{1.25}
\]

Calculating this:

\[
\frac{35}{1.25} = 28
\]

Thus, the 35-meter cable can be cut into **28 pieces** of 1.25 meters each.
