Consider that you want to build a fence using 3.5 in slats. Also, you want the spacing between the slats, s, to be less than or equal to the width of the slats, but as close as possible to s. The total length of the fence is 15 ft. The fence begins and ends with a slat. How many slats are needed and what is the spacing between each slat (to the nearest 1/32 in)?

I wasn't able to parse your question, but the HE.NET team is hard at work making me smarter.
