joe need to cut a piece of sheet metal into 5 pieces. it takes him 2 minutes to make each cut. how many cuts will joe make?
If he starts with one piece and ends up with 5 pieces, then he makes 4 cuts.
It takes him 8 minutes to do the actual cutting, although he may take breaks
between cuts.
I think the correct answer to your question is that he will make 4 cut hope this helps
