Nope. I think you forgot how to divide fractions.
48 / 5/8 = 48 * 8/5 = ??
4 feet = 12 inches times 4 = 48 inches.
48 inches divided by 5/8 inches = 76_4/5 inches.
what is 2 and one fifth
To determine how many pieces of 5/8 inch plywood can be placed on a forklift that is 4 feet high, we need to consider the dimensions of the plywood and the maximum height capacity of the forklift.
1. Determine the thickness of the plywood: The plywood is 5/8 inch thick.
2. Convert the height of the forklift to inches: 4 feet * 12 inches/foot = 48 inches.
3. Divide the height of the forklift by the thickness of the plywood to find the maximum number of plywood pieces that can be stacked: 48 inches / (5/8 inch) = 48 inches * (8/5) = 76.8 pieces.
Since we cannot have a fraction of a plywood piece, we need to round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the maximum number of pieces of 5/8 inch plywood that can be placed on a forklift that is 4 feet high is 76 pieces.
