Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 foot = 12 inches

47.5 inches × (1 foot)/(12 inches) = (47.5/12) feet

24 boards × ((47.5/12) feet)/board = 95 feet

:::::

(8 feet)/board × (12 inches)/foot = (96 inches)/board

96/47.5 = 2 remainder 1

An 8-foot board provides two 47.5" boards, with an inch wasted.

He needs to buy 12 of the 8-foot boards.
