At first, I knew the answer would be 1 1/8.
But that is not an option. Therefore the answer is D. 
For it cannot be A for that doesn't really make any sense. It cannot be B for it says the cable is 8 yards long and he wants to cut it into 9 equal pieces. So that would mean that that 8 would be the denominator not the numerator. So B is out. C is confusing, for we were not subtracting and if we were it would be -1/8 not 1/8. So what is left is D.

Find the measure of the exterior angle.
Vladimir [108]
To find the measurement of an exterior angle, simply take the corresponding interior angle and subtract it from 180. Since the interior and exterior angle together add up to a straight line, their values should equal 180 degrees.
