Awire 4 1/2 feet long is been cut into small pieces of wire each one and 1/4 feet long what is the maximum number of smaller pieces of wire that can be cut from the original piece of wire

2,3,4,5

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Wire is 4 1/2 feet, or 4.5 feet.

Each smaller wire needs to be 1 1/4 feet, or 1.25 feet.

How many whole 1.25 feet wire can we have from total of 4.5 feet wire?

Let's divide:

\

thus we can have 3 whole "1.25 feet long" wire and fractional amount.

Hence, maximum number of smaller pieces is 3

i believe the answer is the polygon, heptagon.
