Answer:
New length is 3 3/20 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total board is 2 5/8 feet long. And since 5/6 of a foot is trimmed off, that means each piece of wood is 5/6 feet.
We can now set up an equation like this ---> 5/6 ⋅ x = 2 5/8
Now we're going to simplify ---> 5/6 ⋅ x = 2 5/8
5/6 ⋅ x = 21/8
(multiply both sides by 6)
5x = 63/4
(divide both sides by 5)
x = 63/20
x= 3.15
So, the new length is 3.15 feet long, or 3 3/20 in mixed fraction.
