Jessie has a piece of wood that is 8 feet long. he needs to cut pieces that are 7/8 of a foot long. how many pieces will he be able to make?

he will be able to make 9 pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

he starts with 8 feet, take away 7/8 each time.

8- 7/8=1 1/8

7 1/8- 7/8=6 2/8

6 2/8- 7/8=5 3/8

and so on.

you should have 1/8 left. I kinda rushed this, so if im wrong please let me know!

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:

6.5

step-by-step explanation:

you said it was in the question
