A) A fence is to have seven boards between two posts so that the space between each board is the same. Calculate the
distance between each board. Answer as a fraction.
b) If the carpenter decided the distance between boards was
too large, would it be possible to add an extra board by decreasing
the space between each board? Explain. Note: dashes are commonly
placed between whole number and fractions so 2-14 is not mistaken
for 21/4.
