Answer:
Ms. Rice need to purchase 9 lengths of edging.
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of edging Ms. Rice need to replace = 166.25 ft
Length of edging lengths sold = 19 ft
Total number of lengths of edging Ms. Rice needs to purchase = [tex]\frac{length\ to\ be\ replaced}{edging\ lengths}= \frac{166.25}{19}= 8.75[/tex]
Since she would purchase whole lengths so it would rounded to 9 in number.
∴ Ms. Rice need to purchase 9 lengths of edging.
