Andre is cutting fence boards from a large piece of wood 101/4 yards long. Each board needs to be 4/5 yard. How many boards can he cut from this piece of wood?(1 poi
To find how many boards Andre can cut from the piece of wood, we need to divide the length of the wood by the length of each board.
The length of the wood is 101/4 yards.
The length of each board is 4/5 yard.
Dividing the length of the wood by the length of each board:
(101/4) รท (4/5)
= (101/4) * (5/4)
= (101 * 5) / (4 * 4)
= 505/16
So, Andre can cut 505/16 boards from the piece of wood.
