It is B because 10/1.5 is 6.66666667 so you would get 6 full pieces.

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter B. 6 full pieces

Explanation:

Data

Length of the board = 10 ft

Length of the pieces = 1 1/2 ft

Number of pieces = ?

Process

1.- Convert the length of each piece to a improper fraction

1 1/2 = (2 + 1)/2 = 3/2

2.- Divide the length of the board by the length of each piece

10/1 ÷ 3/2 = (10 x 2) / (3 x 1)

= 20/3

-Simplify (convert to a mixed fraction)

6

3 20

2

-That means 6 full pieces
