Answer:

greatest number of pieces will be 9 that he can use.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamar has a piece of wood, 8 foot long.

He wants to build a step stool for his tree house by cutting the pieces of the wood \frac{5}{6} foot long each.

Number of pieces of the wood = \frac{\text{length of wood}}{\text{length of each piece}}

= \frac{8}{\frac{5}{6}}

= 8\times \frac{6}{5}

= \frac{48}{5}

= 9\frac{3}{5}

Number of pieces will be 9 full pieces and a fraction of piece.

Therefore, greatest number of pieces will be 9 which Jamar can use.

The greates amount of pieces he would be able to use would be 9 because 8 divided by 5/6= 9 and 3/5.the 3/5 piece is too short.

Which of the following arguments correctly justifies the second step of the flow proof of the triangle angle sum theorem below
pochemuha
We need to see the second step of the proof, so we know what needs to be justified. It would also be nice to see the list of answer choices. I'll never understand how someone who can't answer the question and has to ask someone else can then go ahead and decide that the person helping him only needs to see parts of the question.
