Answer:

26 cuts

Step-by-step explanation:

1. convert 42 feet into inches by multiplying by 12 (12 inches=1 foot)

    42*12 = 504 inches

2. divide the total number of inches (504) by 20 (where Chad cuts)

    504/20 = 25.2

Since Chad cannot make a partial cut (.2) round up to the next whole number - 26
