Answer

65 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

15x5 is 65

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5 feet ÷ 8 = 5/8 of a foot for each rod.

(In inches that would be 5/8 × 12 inches = (5 × 12)/8 inches = 60/8 inches = 15/2 inches = 7 1/2 inches.)

13 rods would be 13 × 5/8 feet = (13 × 5)/8 feet = 65/8 feet = 8 1/8 feet
