30 feet.

Split into 1/4 feet segments of rope.

We can convert 30 to inches and then divide by 3:

12/4=3 (that is a quarter of a foot)

12*30= 360

360/3= 120

There are 120 pieces of quarter foot rope.

You could also say for every 1 foot, there are 4 quarters.

30*4= 120 <== same answer

I hope this helps!
