(Please Help) You have a board of wood that measures 9 3/4 feet. You cut a piece off the board measuring 2 15/16 feet and then another piece measuring 4 3/8 feet. You now need a piece that is 2 1/2 feet long. You say your remaining board of wood is long enough. Is this reasonable?

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

9 3/4 -(2 15/16+4 3/8)

give a common denomenator for all of the fractions.

=9 12/16 - (2 15/16 + 4 6/16)

=9 12/16 - 7 5/16

=2 7/16

so the answer is 2 and a litle bit less than half so the answer is no..
