Deshaun wants to make pieces of yarn that are 0.86 centimeters long. He has a piece of yarn that is 11.18 centimeters long. How many pieces can he make?

To find out how many pieces of yarn Deshaun can make, we need to divide the total length of the yarn he has by the length of each piece he wants to make. Given: - Total length of yarn = 11.18 cm - Length of each piece = 0.86 cm To find the number of pieces Deshaun can make, we will divide the total length of yarn by the length of each piece: Number of pieces = Total length of yarn / Length of each piece Let's calculate this: Calculate the value by following steps: - step0: Calculate: \(\frac{11.18}{0.86}\) - step1: Convert the expressions: \(\frac{\frac{559}{50}}{\frac{43}{50}}\) - step2: Multiply by the reciprocal: \(\frac{559}{50}\times \frac{50}{43}\) - step3: Reduce the numbers: \(13\times 1\) - step4: Simplify: \(13\) Deshaun can make 13 pieces of yarn that are 0.86 centimeters long.
