Answer:

5 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the board is 8 5/6 feet long.

Cuts off 3 1/4 feet.

8 5/6- 3 1/4

Change fractions into improper fractions.

8 5/6=53/6

3 1/4=13/4

-------------------------------------------------------------

53/6x2/2=106/12

13/4x3/3=39/12

106/12-39/12=67/12

=5 7/12

Hope this helps :)
