Respuesta :

Answer:

12

0.6/0.05

(0.6 x 100) / (0.05 x 100)

= 60/5 = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

number of pieces = total weight of the cheese / weight of each piece

0.6 / 0.05

to divide easily, convert the decimals to whole number by multiply both the denominator and numerator by 100

(0.6 x 100) / (0.05 x 100)

= 60/5 = 12
