Question

Doors for the small cabinets are 13.5 inches long. Doors for the large cabinets are 2.5 times as long as the doors for the small cabinets. How many large doors can be cut from a board that is 10 feet long?

Answer 1

make 3

Explanation:

13.5x2.5=33.75in

33.75in=2.8125ft

2.9ft(or so)x3=8.7

You can only make 3 with about 1.5 ft left over. cause 33.75x3=101.25, which is 8.4375ft, or 8.5 ft.
