6 sections 

1.75 
× 6  = 10.50

Marcel needs 10.50 foot board. 

Answer: Marcel needs 10.5 feet board.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Marcel  is purchasing a board to build a bookcase.

The number of equal sections he needs = 6

The length of each section he needed = 17.5 feet

To find the required length of the board to divide in equal sections we need tot multiply  the length  of each section with the number of sections needed.

The length of board is required = [tex]17.5\times6=10.5\ \text{feet}[/tex]

Hence, Marcel needs 10.5 feet board.
