2.
8 * 12 = 96 inches

hello can someone please explain and help me with this problem

Answer 3

this one is easy so you need to:To answer part A, we multiply 24 boards by 47.5 inches to get 1,140 inches, which is 95 feet of boards. To answer part B, we know that an 8-foot board is 96 inches, so we can divide 1,140 by 96 to get 11.875 boards that Corey must buy, but since he can only buy 8-foot boards, he will have to buy a total of 12
