Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of boards are the same :
Let number of boards = x
Fraction cut from each board = 3/5
Total fraction cut = 3/5 * x
Fraction left = 1 - 3/5 = 2/5
Total fraction left = 2/5 * x
Total pieces left = 2/5 * x = 4 times length of original board
Note ; original fraction = 1
Hence,
2/5 * x = 4 * 1
2x / 5 = 4
2x = 4 * 5
2x = 20
x = 20 / 2
x = 10
Number of boards = 10
Most likely a smaller number
