Step-by-step explanation:
Wire is 4 1/2 feet, or 4.5 feet.
Each smaller wire needs to be 1 1/4 feet, or 1.25 feet.
<em>How many whole 1.25 feet wire can we have from total of 4.5 feet wire?</em>
<em />
Let's divide:
\
<em>thus we can have 3 whole "1.25 feet long" wire and fractional amount.</em>
<em />
<em>Hence, maximum number of smaller pieces is 3</em>
The answer is 9. 7 times 9 is 63 and then 63 divided by 3 is 9.
