Answer 1

`4(3)/(8)` yards of wood

Explanation:

The correct question is Hakim is making birdhouses. Each birdhouse uses 7 /8 yard of wood. What is the total length of wood Hakim will need to build 5 birdhouses?

Answer: Given that the amount of wood need to produce one bird house is 7/8 yard, for 5 birdhouse, the amount of wood needed would be 5 times the number needed for one birdhouse. It is given by:

Amount of wood needed for 5 birdhouse = 5 × amount of wood for 1 birdhouse

Amount of wood needed for 5 birdhouse = 5 × 7/8 yards = 35/8 =
`4(3)/(8)` yards of wood
