Question

if 3 is divided into pieces that are 1/10 of a whole each how many pieces are there in total

Answer 1

Answer:

30 pieces

Explanation:

If 3 is divided into pieces that are 1/10 of a whole each.

The number of pieces that would be obtained in total will be:

$3\div\frac{1}{10}$

We then solve the expression above for our result.

We change our division sign to times and take the reciprocal of the fraction after the division sign.

$\begin{gathered} =3\times\frac{10}{1} \\ =3\times10 \\ =30\text{ pieces} \end{gathered}$

There will be 30 pieces in total.
