Question

You have six 4-foot lengths of lumber, and you need of them for a project. How many feet of lumber are you using for

the project? Your answer should be a whole or mixed number.

Answer 1

The number of feets of lumber needed is 24 feets

Using the parameters given for our Calculation;

• Length of each lumber = 4 feet
• Number of lumbers needed = 6

Total feets of lumber used ;

• Length per lumber × number of lumbers

Now we have ;

• 4 × 6 = 24

Hence, 24 feets of lumber would be needed .
