Ed Jaffee felled a tree that was 150 feet long. Ed decided to cut the tree into pieces measuring 1 1/5 feet each. How many pieces can be cut from this tree?
To find how many times a number goes into another we would have to divide. So what you want to do is divide 150 by 1 1/5 or 1.2. So do 150/1.2 which will equal 125.
