A board with a length of 6.2 m must be sawn into pieces 0.5 m long. How many such pieces will turn out.

Determine for what the maximum number of parts, the length of each of which will be equal to 0.5 meters, you can cut this board, if we know, in accordance with the data from the conditions of this task, that the length of the board is 6.2 meters:

6.2: 0.5 = 12.4. Since the number of parts cannot be a non-integer number, we round down the result. That is, we will have 12 parts.

Answer: The maximum number of such pieces that can be obtained by sawing a board is 12.
