In the given question, there are several information's of immense importance and worth taking a look. based on these information's, the answer to the question can be easily determined.The length that has to be divided into 26 equal parts is 20 yards and 8 inches.Firstly we have to change the yard into inches and then we can divide the total inches into 26 equal parts.
We know
1 yard = 36 inches
20 yards = 720 inches
Then the total length that has to be divided = (720 + 8) inches
= 728 inches
Now we have to divide the 728 inches into 26 equal parts.
Length of each section = (728/26) inches
= 28 inches.
So each of the 26 parts will have a length of 28 inches.
