A fence is to be constructed using the following dimensions:

Width between posts- 95 inches.

Width of one slat- 3.5 inches.

Spacing between slats- .5 inches.

Calculate number of slats needed to fit.

@Randy Dandy,
Something seems odd here. Each slat occupies 4 inches of space
4x23 slats =92 inches. That leaves 3 inches of space.

If the posts are 4x4 and 95 inches on center, that would look OK. But I think I might still opt for an additional slat
