Answer :

  • 0.4in

Explanation :

alright so all we need to do is deduct the length of the bolt from the total thickness of the two board stuck with each other.

  • => 2.5in - (0.85in + 1.25in)
  • => 2.5in - 2.1in
  • => 0.4in

thus, 0.4in of the bolt would stick out the other side.

Answer:

0.4 inches

Explanation:

To find out how much of the bolt sticks out the other side, we can add the thickness of both boards and then subtract this total from the length of the bolt.

Let's denote:

  • Thickness of the first board as
    \sf t_1 (0.85 inches),
  • Thickness of the second board as
    \sf t_2 (1.25 inches),
  • Length of the bolt as
    \sf L (2.5 inches).

The total thickness of the two boards is
\sf t_1 + t_2.


\sf \textsf{Total thickness} = 0.85 + 1.25


\sf \textsf{Total thickness} = 2.1 \, \textsf{inches}

Now, to find out how much of the bolt sticks out, subtract the total thickness from the length of the bolt:


\sf \textsf{Sticking out length} = L - \textsf{Total thickness}


\sf \textsf{Sticking out length} = 2.5 - 2.1


\sf \textsf{Sticking out length} = 0.4 \, \textsf{inches}

So, 0.4 inches of the bolt sticks out the other side.
