One eighth to a decimal

Turner's mom measured his room to see how long the wallpaper border needed to be. if two walls are 15 feet long and two walls are 12 feet long, how long should the strip of border be cut?

The tuition costs, c, for a local community college are modeled by c(h) = 250 + 200h, where h represents the number of credit hours taken. the local state university has tuition costs, s, modeled by the function s(h) = 300 + 180h. how many credit hours will a student have to take for the two tuition costs to be equal? round the answer to the nearest tenth of an hour.

Icould really use some with this question.
