Answer:

9 full pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this we have to divide the total feets of wood that Jessie has, by the size of the pieces that Jessie needs:

\frac{8}{\frac{7}{8} }\\\frac{\frac{8}{1} }{\frac{7}{8} }\\\frac{8*8}{7*1}\\\frac{64}{7} =9.14

Since Jessie will be able to cut 9.14 pieces of wood, he will have only 9 full pieces, so the total amount of pieces that he would be able to cut will be 9.

Evalute the experssion -280+12x=
Alina [70]
The answer is 23 1/3. First, you need to add 280 to both sides of the equations in order cancel out 280 and get 12x by itself. But remember whatever you do to one side of an equation, you must to do the other. So now you have 12x=280. Now divide both sides of the equation by 12 in order to get x completely isolated. 280 divided by twelve is 23 1/3.
