Question

There is an ivory sculpture in the museum. It is of height 4/5 m. It has 5 identical parts. Find the height of each part.

• A. $\frac{4}{25}$ m
• B. $\frac{1}{25}$ m
• C. $\frac{16}{5}$ m
• D. $\frac{5}{16}$ m

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{4}{25}$ m

Height of the ivory sculpture = $\frac{4}{5}$ m

It has 5 parts.

Height of 1 part = $\frac{4}{5}$ $÷$ 5

= $\frac{4}{5}$ $\times$ $\frac{1}{5}$

= $\frac{4}{25}$ m

Hence, the height of each part is $\frac{4}{25}$ m.
