Question

A board that is 2/3 of a yard long needs to be cut into four equal pieces. what will the length of each piece be?

Answer 1

The length of each piece will be
`(1)/(6)\ yd`

Explanation:

we know that

To find the length of each piece, divide the total length of the board by four

so

`((2/3))/(4)=(2)/(12)\ yd`

Simplify

`(2)/(12)=(1)/(6)\ yd`
