Answer:

8 3/4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the rod = 24 1/2 inches

Carlos = 8 3/4 inches

Amanda = 6 3/8 inches

length of the rod remaining = Total length - ( Carlos + Amanda)

= 24 1/2 - (8 3/4 + 6 3/8)

= 49/2 - (35/4 + 51/8)

= 49/2 - ( 75+51/8)

= 49/2 - 126/8

= 196-126/8

= 70/8

= 8 6/8 inches

= 8 3/4 inches

Length of rod remaining = 8 3/4 inches

Answer:

9 3/8
