I am a carpenter. The actual answer (assuming all cuts are perfectly accurate) is 5¾" if you are using a typical miter saw, 5¹³⁄₁₆" if you are using a typical western handsaw, or 5⅞" if you are using a Japanese hansaw.

Mr. Colfax, question ? How do i remember which formula to use for the problem. When theres so many similarities in wording. I get really confused whenever i face a problem. I know ive done it before but forget how to do it. Then maybe i do a problem and use a whole different formula im just super confused. Im tryna catch up for all the years i missed

It just comes with practice and experience, keep practicing and it will start to be easier and you will recognize which formula to use. Good luck

Still plug it the same way. If it were odd, it wouldn't cancel so you would have a fraction. If it were a negative less than 32, the overall number would stay positive

21 years old, dropped out from high school since i was 15. I’m an US resident originally from Tonga and my English isn’t really perfect. I have hard time trying to understand some words when it comes to reading. I tried joining the army back in 2021 but they required High school diploma or GED. I went to adult school trying to get my GED but it took me years and it’s just too long. Now I’m trying to pass ASVAB so i could join the army.

Hey, I commented on one of your older videos about a year ago or so. Just wanted to say that I decided to go army instead of navy I passed my ASVAB with a 70! High school drop out here. Got my GED about the same time I started watching your vids. I’m waiting on waiver approval and I could possibly be shipped out as soon as August. your videos are very important to the minority of people wanting to enlist in the services.
