To find the length of each short piece of string, we need to divide the total length of the string by the number of pieces.
Length of each short piece = Total length of string / Number of pieces
Length of each short piece = 370 m / 2000
Next, we need to simplify the fraction.
Length of each short piece = 0.185 m
Therefore, each short piece of string is 0.185 meters long.
A 370 m roll of string was cut into 2000 pieces of the same length. Find the length of each short piece of string. Give your answer in metres.
