Answer: There are 21 slices of [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] inch.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Length of one cucumber = 3 inches
Length of another cucumber = 5 inches
Total length would be
3 + 5 = 8 inches
According to question, She cuts the cucumbers into [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] inch slices and adds them to a salad.
so, Number of [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] inch thick slices would be
[tex]\dfrac{8}{\dfrac{3}{8}}\\\\=\dfrac{8\times 8}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{64}{3}\\\\=21.33\\\\\approx 21[/tex]
Hence, there are 21 slices of [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] inch.
