Decimals are much more efficient than fractions.
4 7/8 = 39/8
(39/8) / (3/8)
(39/8) * (8/3) = 312/24 = 13 pieces
20 - 13 = ?
4 7/8 = 39/8
(39/8) / (3/8)
(39/8) * (8/3) = 312/24 = 13 pieces
20 - 13 = ?

If you change 4 7/8 that is 39/8
39/8÷3/8
KCF
39/8×8/3= 312/24
312÷24=13
20-13=7
so the answer is 7 more pieces
39/8÷3/8
KCF
39/8×8/3= 312/24
312÷24=13
20-13=7
so the answer is 7 more pieces
