George has a wooden board that is 3 1/4 feet long. He needs to cut it into sections that are 3/4 foot long. How many sections can he cut from this board?(1 point)
To find the number of sections that can be cut from the board, we need to divide the length of the board by the length of each section.
George has a board that is 3 1/4 feet long, or 3.25 feet.
Each section is 3/4 of a foot, or 0.75 feet long.
To find the number of sections, we divide the length of the board by the length of each section:
3.25 feet / 0.75 feet = 4.333333333333333
Since we can't have a fraction of a section, we round down to the nearest whole number.
George can cut 4 sections from this board. Answer: \boxed{4}.
