The answer is 5/4 in

The initial length:
1 ft = 12 in
8 ft = 8 * 12 in
      = 96 in

The final length:
7 ft 10 3/4 in = 7 ft + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 7 * 12 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 84 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 94 in + 3/4 in

The cut if the initial length - final length:
96 in - 94 in - 3/4 in = 2 in - 3/4 in = 8/4 in - 3/4 in = 5/4 in

alexgriva [62]
Assuming a normal distribution  we find the standardized z scores for  a:-

z1 = (80 - 180)  / 25  =  = -100/25  = -4
z2 =  (280-180) / 25  =  4
Required P( -4 < z < 4)  from the tables is  >99.9%

b
z1 = 130-180 / 25 =  -2
z2 =  230-180 / 25  = 2

from tables probability is 2* 0.4773  =  95.46 %
