Answer: There are 5 pieces of wood that can be cut from board.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of board =
$1(7)/(8)=(15)/(7)\ feet$

Length of pieces of wood that cut from board =
(3)/(8)

So, Number of pieces of wood would be

$\frac{\text{Length of board}}{\text{Length of pieces of wood}}\\\\=((15)/(8))/((3)/(8))\\\\=(15)/(3)\\\\=5$

Hence, there are 5 pieces of wood that can be cut from board.
