Mr. Trainer is building a bookcase. He has two wooden boards that are each 8 feet long. He needs to cut the wooden boards into pieces that are 16 inches long. What is the greatest number of 16-inch pieces that Mr. Trainer can cut from the two wooden boards? (1 foot = 12 inches)

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of one of the boards = 8 feet

Converting to inches

One cut is 16 inches

So, we divide the length of the board by 16

So, one board is cut into 6 pieces.

The other board is also 8 feet long.

So, the number of pieces the other board is cut into is also 6.

Hence, a total of pieces of each 16 inches long can be cut from the two boards.

step-by-step explanation:

hopefully im right

1/4 and 8/3 because:

the reciprocal if 4 is 1/4 because 4 is used as 4/1 and the opposite of that is 1/4. the opposite of 3/8 is 8/3 so that is the answer.
