    Answer:

    5 full pieces

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    Board\ Length = 7\frac{3}{4}ft

    Pieces = 1\frac{1}{3}ft

    Required

    Determine the number of pieces that can be cut from the board

    This is calculated by dividing the board length by the length of each piece.

    Number = \frac{Board\ Length}{Pieces}

    Number = 7\frac{3}{4} / 1\frac{1}{3}

    Convert to improper fractions

    Number = \frac{31}{4} / \frac{4}{3}

    Change / to *

    Number = \frac{31}{4} * \frac{3}{4}

    Number = \frac{31*3}{4*4}

    Number = \frac{93}{16}

    Number = 5.8125

    Round down to discard the decimal parts

    Number = 5

    Hence, the carpenter can cut full-sized 5 pieces
