If you divide 5 by 6 to turn it into a decimal, you get 0.83. All you have to do is find a numerator that you can divide by 8 to get a decimal less than 0.83.
So, 1/8, 2/8, 3/8, 4/8, 5/8, or 6/8 would work.
<span>Simplifying
7p + 2 = 5p + 8
Reorder the terms:
2 + 7p = 5p + 8
Reorder the terms:
2 + 7p = 8 + 5p
Solving
2 + 7p = 8 + 5p
Solving for variable 'p'.
Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-5p' to each side of the equation.
2 + 7p + -5p = 8 + 5p + -5p</span>
The perimeter of an object is found by adding all of the sides. The sides of his frame would be 2 ft, 2 ft, 1.5 ft (18 inches / 12 inches per foot = 1.5 feet), 1.5 feet. Adding these together we get a total length of 7 feet. However, he may want to use a slightly longer board to account for any errors!

Area of rectangle
21m^2
Area of one triangle
divide length of 7 by 2 (3.5)
gives you length b (unknown side that is not hypotenuse)
then multiply by width of triangle (4)
3.5 * 4 = 14
and in this situation there is no need to divide by two, because you essentially have one full square from both the triangles. this only works when both triangles are the same.
add the area of the rectangle
14+21= 35
35m^2
