Answer 1

Answer:

30 pieces of wire is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

A petting zoo owner is building an enclosure for his farm animals.

He needs 353 feet of fencing. The supply store sells fencing in pieces 12 feet long.

The number of pieces needed = $\frac{353}{12}=29.42$ feet

This can be rounded to 30 pieces.

Hence, the answer is 30 pieces.

Answer 2

353/12 =29.41. But will have to round up to 30 so the answer is 30
