Q. Tim is using a long wooden board to fix a broken fence. He saws the board into 77 equal pieces. Tim uses 11 piece to fix the front of the fence.\newlineWhat fraction of the board does Tim use to fix the front of the fence?\newline____ /____
  1. Sawing the Board: Tim saws the board into 77 equal pieces and uses 11 piece for the front of the fence. To find the fraction of the board used, we consider the total pieces and the pieces used.
  2. Calculating Fraction: Calculation: Tim uses 11 out of 77 pieces. So, the fraction is 17\frac{1}{7}.
