Answer: The width of the leftover brass is 17 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to add the width of the pieces cut.
Mathematically speaking:
8 in +8 in = 16 in
Now, we have to subtract that result to the width of the sheet of brass.
33 in -16 in = 17 in
The width of the leftover brass is 17 inches.
