Question

Wilson needs 9 pieces of wood that are each!

ft long. He has one

board that is 3 !

ft long. Will he be able to make all the pieces he

needs from that one board?

Answer 1

yes he will as he has 31ft.

9 x 1ft = 9ft is required for wilson to make his 9 x 1ft project.

Wilson has 31ft in one board. So with 31ft he can have 31 pieces of wood that are 1ft long each, he does have enough pieces should he cut these into 1ft.

! = 1ft and 3! = 31ft in your question.

This should help you relook at your question that says 1ft

and 31ft.
