To determine how many inches across John will need, we need to subtract the space he wants to leave on each side of the box from the width of the box:
10 3/6 inches - 7 1/2 inches - 7 1/2 inches = 10 1/6 inches
Therefore, John will need approximately 10 1/6 inches across.
10 3/6 inches - 7 1/2 inches - 7 1/2 inches = 10 1/6 inches
Therefore, John will need approximately 10 1/6 inches across.
