8-4 2/3 is 3 1/3.
3 1/3 is your answer.

Answer:

  5 [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To get how much of the board remained, we simply subtract the length Emmet cut from the initial length of the board

Initial length of the board = 8

Length cut out  =    2 [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

                         = [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex]

                         

Length of board remained = Initial length of board - Length cut out

                                            = 8 - [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex]

           

                                             = [tex]\frac{24-7}{3}[/tex]

                                             =[tex]\frac{17}{3}[/tex]

                                          = 5 [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Therefore the length of the board remained  is 5 [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] feet
