Answer:
13 slices
1/4 inches is left over
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a 10 inch loaf of bread is cut into 3/4 inch thick slices
Let the number of slices cut be x
This x should be an integer
Given condition is [tex]\frac{3x}{4} < 10[/tex]
x < 13.33
since x is an integer x = 13
Therefore 13 slices 3/4 inches slices can be cut
Inches of bread left over = 10 - Inches of bread cut = 10 - [tex]13\times \frac{3}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
