An 11 3/8-inch wide board can be cut into how many strips of width 5/8 inch, if each cut takes 1/8 inch of the width? (Must the answer be a whole
number?)

Respuesta :

Answer:

15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Width of the strip + cut = 5/8 + 1/8 = 3/4.

11 3/8 / 3/4

=  91/8 / 3/4

= 91/8 * 4/3

= 91/6

= 15  1/6

So the answer is 15
