I would say b but i’m not 100% sure lol
Answer:
100%
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with x.
x = x/1
Increase the numerator by 60% to 1.6x.
Decrease the numerator by 20% to 0.8.
The new fraction is
1.6x/0.8
Do the division.
1.6x/0.8 = 2x
The fraction increased from x to 2x. It became double of what it was. From x to 2x, the increase is x. Since x was the original number x is 100%.
The increase is 100%.
3 feet 8 inches converted to inches is 3x12+8=44inches
44inches times 4 pieces is 176 inches.
176 inches converted back to feet and inches is 176/12=14 feet 8 inches so he would need 15 feet of board
