Answer :

Answer:

the number of 40cm lengths cut is 5.75 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of 40cm lengths cut is shown below:

= (Length of steel bar - two lengths) ÷ (length)

= (340 cm - 55 cm - 55cm) ÷ (40 cm)

= 230 cm ÷ 40 cm

= 5.75 pieces

Hence, the number of 40cm lengths cut is 5.75 pieces

We simply applied the above formula so  that the correct unit could come
