  1. Answer:

    6 whole pieces

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First, convert 5 feet and 3 inches to feet.

    There are 12 inches in a foot, so 3 inches is 1/4 of a foot.

    So, 5 feet and 3 inches is equivalent to 5.25 feet.

    Divide 32 by 5.25 to find how many whole pieces it can be cut into:

    32/5.25

    = 6.1

    This means that it can be cut into 6 whole pieces.
