Answer 1.5

Divide 9/6= "Answer"

Where did the 9 come from?

Answer:


5(19)/(24) feet

Explanation:

The length of the board is =
34(3)/(4) feet

=
(139)/(4) feet

We have to cut into 6 equal pieces.

The length of each piece will be =
((139)/(4) )/(6)

=
(139)/(24)

=
5(19)/(24) feet

= 5.79 feet

The length of each piece would be
5(19)/(24) feet
