Answer:

n = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The length of the ribbon is 4.5 m

Each piece is 15 cm long

We know that, 1 m = 100 cm

⇒ 4.5 m = 450 cm

Let there are n pieces. It can be calculated by dividing total length and each of each piece as follows :

[tex]n=\dfrac{450\ cm}{15\ cm}\\\\n=30[/tex]

There are 30 pieces.
