Morgan has an 8 1/2 foot board that must be cut into boards that are feet long. How many of the smaller boards can he get from the 8 1/2 foot board? Which of the following equations could you use to solve the problem?
x * 8 1/2 = 5/6
8 1/2 * x = 5/6
5/6 * 8 1/2 = x
8 1/2 / 5/6 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

8 1/2 foot board to be cut into 5/6 feet boards.

Number of smaller boards is:

Correct equation is D

8 1/2 / 5/6 = x

Step-by-step explanation: converted to inches

8 1/2 * 12 =102

5/6 *12= 10

102/10 = 8 1/2 / 5/6

C. Point P

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt(92) = 9.59

The point closest to 9.59 is point P.
