kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The length of each piece of dowel rod = \frac{1}{45} yards.

Explanation:

Length of the wooden dowel rod = \frac{8}{15} yards.

Eduardo needs to cut the rod into 24 equal length pieces, thus;

length of each piece of the dowel rod = \frac{length of the dowel rod}{24}

                                                     =  \frac{8}{15} ÷ 24

                                                     =  \frac{8}{15} x \frac{1}{24}

                                                     = \frac{1}{15} x \frac{1}{3}

                                                      = \frac{1}{45}

length of each piece of the dowel rod = \frac{1}{45} yards

Therefore, the length of each piece of dowel rod is \frac{1}{45} yards.

MissTica
The answer to this is Diagnostic. It helps the doctors test the patient to see if he/she has cancer because having too much white blood cells could cause cancer or certain types of diseases. Plus the doctor would use a blood lab work in order to determine how much the person has white blood cells in the patient's blood. The lab could also test how much the patient has red blood cells in the blood. 

Hope this helped :)
