How many 12 inch sections can you get out of a 9 foot piece of plywood?

1 foot = 12 inches so 9 ft = 9*12 inches so 9 sections!


You need to cut a 9 foot piece of plywood into 12 inch sections. Every cut also removes 18 inch. How many 12 inch sections can you get out of the 9 foot piece of plywood?

A 9-foot piece of plywood is 108 inches long. If you want to cut it into 12-inch sections, you can theoretically get 9 sections (108 ÷ 12 = 9). However, each cut removes 18 inches in total, so to make 8 cuts to achieve 9 sections, you need to account for the 18 inches lost. This means you lose 18 inches from the 108 inches, leaving you with 90 inches, which can only yield 7 full 12-inch sections (90 ÷ 12 = 7.5). Thus, you can get 7 complete 12-inch sections.

How many inches do you need to cover the semi circle given below if its diameter is 28 inches?

The perimeter of the semicircle is 71.98 inches, approx. The semicircle cannot be covered by any number of inches because an area (in 2-dimensional space) cannot be covered by a length (in 1-dimensional space).


What is the height of a trapezoid with parallel sides of 8 and 13 inches and an area of 94.5 square inches?

1/2*(sum of parallel sides)*height = 94.5 1/2*21*height = 94.5 sq inches Multiply both sides by 2 and then divide both sides by 21: height = 9 inches Check: 1/2*21*9 = 94.5 sq inches
