    Total number of 1 2/3 feet long pieces that will be cut=8 pieces

    Step-by-step explanation:

    This can be expressed as;

    Total length of the board=length per piece*number of pieces

    where;

    Total length of board=14 1/4 feet

    Length per piece=1 2/3 feet

    Number of pieces=n

    Replacing;

    14 1/4=1 2/3*n

    (57/4) = (5/3) n

    n = (57/4) * (3/5) = 8.55

    Total number of 1 2/3 feet long pieces that will be cut=8 pieces
