Michelle‘s father bought him a 16 foot board to cut into shelves for his bedroom Michelle plans to cut the board into 11 equals Size links for his shows the saw blade that Michelle will use to cut the board will change the length of the board by -0.125 inches for each cut How old is affect the total length of the board

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Length of board = 16 feet

Converting length of Board to inches:

1 foot = 12 inches

Total initial length in inches = (16 * 12) = 192 inches

To cut in 11 equal pieces : blade will have to be used 10 times

Since the Blade changes the length of each. Piece by - 0.125 inches

The total change or reduction in inch:

-0. 125 inches * 10 pieces = - 1.250 inches

Hence the total change in length :

Initial length - total reduction ;

192 inches - 1.250 inches

192 - 1.250 = 190.750

Therefore, size of each shelf will be:

190.750 / 11

= 17.34

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36
