a = "Example One"
a = a.split(/ /)[0]

In general, the way to solve a problem is to try and tackle it from 
different angles.
Do you want to ...
a) remove everything after 'Example'?
b) remove the last four characters of the string?
c) remove everything after the first word?
d) remove the last word and the last space?
