Harrod went to the hardware store and bought 7 identical wooden boards. When Harrod placed all the boards end-to-end, the line was 0.7 meters long. How long was each board?
Answer provided by our tutors
let x = the length of one wooden board
the length of 7 wooden board is: 7*x
7x = 0.7 divide both sides by
x = 0.7/7
x = 0.1 m
the length of each board is 0.1 meters.
