So based on the given problem above, it is said that Natalie sawed five boards of equal length, and each of this is 9/10 of a meter. So this means, it is 0.9 meters long each. Since it is 5, we multiply this by 5 so the total number of meters would be 4.5 meters or 4 and 1/2 meters. Hope this answers your question.

The total meters of board Natalie saw = 4 ½ meters

  • She made 5 boards
  • Each board = 9/10 meter

Further Explanation

To determine the total amount of the board Natalie saw, each board value will be multiplied by the number of boards Natalie made.

Since each board value is a fraction (9/10), the numerator (9) would be multiplied by 5, and then divided by the denominator (10).

The derived answer would be the amount of boards Natalie made.

Therefore,

= 9/10 x 5

= 9 x 5 ÷ 10

= 45 ÷ 10

= 4.5

Expressing it in a whole number and remaining fractional unit:

= 4.5

= 4 ½

The above expression is a given number problem that deals with a fraction. Fractions are said to be part of a whole. Notably, whole numbers are number values that do not have a fraction or are without a fraction.

4 is an example of a whole number. While ½ is a fractional value.

There are three types of fraction:

  • Proper fraction
  • Improper fraction
  • Mixed fraction

Also, an Order of Operations i.e. BODMAS was used to derive the final answer (4 ½). Notably, Multiplication and Division. BODMAS represents Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction.
