From a metal pipe with a length of 8.84 m, first a piece with a length of 1.96 m was cut

From a metal pipe with a length of 8.84 m, first a piece with a length of 1.96 m was cut, then another piece with a length of 2.17 m. How long is the remaining piece of pipe.

Let us determine how long the pipe was cut in total, if it is known that first they cut off a piece, the length of which was 1.96 meters, and then cut off a piece, the length of which was 2.17 meters.
2.17 + 1.96 = 4.13 meters.
Let’s determine the length of the remaining pipe, if it is known that initially its length was 8.84 meters, and 4.13 meters were cut off.
8.84 – 4.13 = 4.71 meters.
Answer: The piece of the remaining pipe is 4.71 meters long.
