Question

.A bolt has 15 turns per inch. How many 8 turns would be in 6 6 2/3 inches of threads? 5​

Answer 1

Answer:

Did you mean 2 and 1/2 inches (2.5 inches) of thread?

If yes,

16 1/2 turns

(2 and 1/2) inches x ------------------- =

1 inch

2 and 1/2 x 16 and 1/2 = 5/2 x 33/2 = 165/4 = 41 and 1/4 turns

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

if NO, then

2/12 inches = 1/6 inches.

1/6 x (16 and 1/2 ) = 1/6 x 33/2 = 33/12 = 11/4 = 2 and 3/4 = 2.75
