Tasha has 10.4 yards of lace. She uses 2 yards for a project. Then she cuts the remaining lace into 6 equal pieces.

How many yards long is each piece of lace?

Answer:

1.4

Explanation:

you have 10.4 yards of lace and take 2 yards away (10.4-2=8.4)

Now you have 8.4 yards and you need to cut it into 6 equal pieces (8.4 divided by 6=1.4)

Each piece is 1.4 yards long:)
