Given :
Jessica needs 233 feet of wood to build a fence the word comes in length of 11 feet.[tex]N= 21\times 2[/tex]
To Find :
How many pieces of wood should Jessica by Samuel needs twice as many feet as Jessica how many pieces of wood does Samuel need.
Solution :
Total number of pieces of wood Jessica needs is :
[tex]n = \dfrac{233}{11}\\\\n = 21.18[/tex]
Since number of pieces cannot be negative.
So, n = 21
It is given that Samuel needs twice as many feet as Jessica need.
So,
N = 21 × 2 = 42
Therefore, Samuel needs 42 pieces of wood.
