Ella has two 8ft long boards she needs to cut pieces that are 15 inches long how many 15 inch pieces can she cut the two boards

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Ella has two 8 feet long boards, so in total, she has 16 feet of the boards.

Convert these 16 feet to inches. There are 12 inches in a foot, so multiply 16 by 12:

16(12)

= 192

So, there are 192 inches in the boards. Divide this by 15 to see how many 15 inch pieces she can cut:

192/15

= 12.8

We can only have a whole number answer, because the boards need to be a full 15 inches. So, round this down:

= 12

Ella can cut twelve 15 inch pieces.
