Answer 1

To find out how many pieces Blake cut, we need to determine how many one-fourth pieces can be made from 5 sheets of poster board.

First, since each sheet can be divided into 4 pieces (because each piece is one-fourth of a sheet), we calculate the total number of pieces from all the sheets:

5 sheets × 4 pieces per sheet = 20 pieces.

So, the answer is **E. 20**.
