Acarpenter has a 6 foot long board. he wants to cut the board into pieces that are 4/5 foot long. what length of the original board will be left after the carpenter has cut all the pieces that are 4/5 foot long?

4/8 will be your answer, but for the simplified version, it would be 1/2 :) Hope this helped!!

Step-by-step explanation:

If he wants to cut them into 4/5 long pieces, you would have to multiply 6 and 4/5.

6 ⋅ 4/5

Which can also be 6/1 ⋅ 4/5. 6 times 4 is 24.

24 is your numerator

5 times 1 is 5. 5 is your denominator.

Now all you have to do is simplify 24/5

2 over 5

step-by-step explanation:

the 2: 3 ratio is the length of the ac segment to the cb segment total length. this implies that the ratio between segment ac length and segment ab length is 2: 5. point c is 2/5 from a to b, so the required fraction is 2/5.
