19. William had a board that was 5 ft. 3 in. long. He cut off a piece that was 2 ft. 8 in. long. How
much board does he have left?
A.3 ft. 7 in.
B.3 ft. 5 in.
C.2 ft. 7 in.
D.2 ft. 5 in***
Am I right?
Please help
C.2 ft. 7 in
5 ft x 12 in/ft = 60 in
2 ft x 12in/ft = 24 in
(60 in + 3 in) - (24 in+ 8 in) = 31 in = 2.583333... ft
That's 2 ft and more than a half (0.583333...)
So 2 ft, 7 in.
Thank you so much for explaining to me and showing me how to do it the right way. Thank you!

worst page ever
Idk what to say about this-.- Is this person right? But thanks anyways. Pizzaluver out!
To find out how much board William has left, we need to subtract the length of the piece he cut off from the original length of the board.
The original length of the board is 5 ft 3 in. To perform the subtraction, we need to convert both measurements to the same unit (inches).
Converting 5 ft to inches:
1 ft = 12 in
5 ft = 5 * 12 in = 60 in
Adding the additional 3 inches, we get the original length of the board in inches:
60 in + 3 in = 63 in
Now, let's convert the length of the piece William cut off to inches.
Converting 2 ft to inches:
2 ft = 2 * 12 in = 24 in
Adding the additional 8 inches, we get the length of the piece William cut off in inches:
24 in + 8 in = 32 in
To find out how much board William has left, we subtract the length of the piece he cut off from the original length of the board:
63 in - 32 in = 31 in
Now, let's convert the answer back to feet and inches.
31 in can be divided into 12 in + 12 in + 7 in, which is equal to 2 ft 7 in.
Therefore, William has 2 ft 7 in of board left.
So, the correct answer is C. 2 ft. 7 in.
you people who are begging for answers need to try! not make other people do the work for YOU
