Answer:
8 3/4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Total length of the rod = 24 1/2 inches
Carlos = 8 3/4 inches
Amanda = 6 3/8 inches
length of the rod remaining = Total length - ( Carlos + Amanda)
= 24 1/2 - (8 3/4 + 6 3/8)
= 49/2 - (35/4 + 51/8)
= 49/2 - ( 75+51/8)
= 49/2 - 126/8
= 196-126/8
= 70/8
= 8 6/8 inches
= 8 3/4 inches
Length of rod remaining = 8 3/4 inches
