jamar has a 8 foot long piece of wood that he wants to cut to build a tree house if each is going to be 5/6 foot long, what is the greatest number of pieces he will be able to use​

The greates amount of pieces he would be able to use would be 9 because 8 divided by 5/6= 9 and 3/5.the 3/5 piece is too short.

Step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!

only 10/60 isn't equivalent

hope this : )
