Answer:
Yes.
2 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Pieces of copper that Arsenio needs in total = 27 pieces
Length of each piece of copper tubing that he needs = 2/9 foot
Length of available tubing = 8 foot
Since, the length of each piece is 2/9 foot, the length of 27 pieces would be:
This means, Arsenio needs 6 feet in total for the copper tubing. Since he got 8 feet in total, he has sufficient amount of tubing available.
After making the 27 pieces, he will be left with 8 - 6 = 2 feet of tubing.
