Answer: 51/8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you must cut down the length of copper tubbing from 15 1/8 inches to 8 3/4 inches, the leftover piece will be:

15 1/8 - 8 3/4

Change the mixed fraction to improper fraction.

121/8 - 35/4

The LCM will be 8

( 121 - 70 )/8

51/8 or 6.375 inches

Therefore, the leftover piece will be 51/8 inches long
