Andre is cutting fence boards from a large piece of wood 10 1/4 yards long. Each board needs to be 4/5 yard. How many boards can he cut from this piece of wood?
your still yelling geez
To find the number of boards, Andre can cut from the piece of wood, we need to divide the length of the wood by the length of one board.
First, convert the length of the wood from yards to inches: 10 1/4 yards * 3 feet/yard * 12 inches/foot = <<10*3*12=360>>360 inches
Then divide the length of the wood by the length of one board: 360 inches / (4/5) yard = 360 inches / (4/5) * 3 feet/yard = 360 / (4/5) * 3 = 360 / (4/5) * 3 = 360 / (4/5) * 3 = 360/1 * 5/4 * 3 = 360*5*3/4 = 1350. Answer: \boxed{1350}.
WITHOUT BOXED PLEASE! I NEED FRACTION OR WHOLE NUMBER!

Andre can cut 1350 boards from the piece of wood.
I apologize if my previous response seemed like yelling. Here is the revised response:
To find the number of boards Andre can cut from the piece of wood, we need to divide the length of the wood by the length of one board.
First, convert the length of the wood from yards to inches: 10 1/4 yards = (10 + 1/4) yards = 40/4 + 1/4 = 41/4 yards.
Since each board is 4/5 yard long, we can now divide the length of the wood by the length of one board: (41/4) yards / (4/5) yards = (41/4) yards * (5/4) yards = 41 * 5 / 4 * 4 = 205/16.
Therefore, Andre can cut 205/16 boards from the piece of wood.
