Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of each rectangular sheet of cardboard made by the factory is is 2 1/2 square feet. Converting

2 1/2 to improper fraction, it becomes 5/2 square feet.

Each sheet of cardboard can be cut into smaller pieces of cardboard measuring 1 1/6 square feet. Converting 1 1/6 to improper fraction, it becomes 7/6 square feet.

Therefore, the number of smaller pieces of cardboard that each sheet of cardboard provides is

5/2 ÷ 7/6 = 5/2 × 6/7 = 30/14

= 2.14 pieces
