It is the sum of the integers from 1-41 minus the sum of the integers from 1-24 divided by 17
the sum of the integers from 1-41 is (42)(45)/2 = 861
the sum of the integers from 1-24 is (24)(25)/2 = 300
(861-300)/17 = 33
The answer is 33

Sheila is incorrect! I think what she did is think the 38 was actually a 35, which WOULD of made her statement true, but since it's 38, she's very incorrect. Sheila should be using the quotient for the size of each piece. 38 divided by 5 is 7.6. The correct answer is 7.6 inches.
2^3=2*2*2
2*2*2+4*8
8+32
=> 40
