A piece of fabric is 2 yards long. The fabric is cut into 24 pieces of equal length. How long is each piece?

Division of a given length of an item into required length, would result to a length lesser than the initial length of the fabric. This ensures that the required length of each piece is .

The given fabric has been divided into equal proportion. The length of the small pieces of the given fabric can be determined by dividing the total length of fabric by the number of pieces.

Let the length of each piece required be represented by x.

So that;

given that the total length of the fabric is 2 yards, then;

24x = 2

divide both sides by 24 to have;

x =

  =

x = yards.

Thus, each piece of the 24 pieces of fabric has a length of yards.

step-by-step explanation:

there are 36 inches in a yard

25 : 36 = 0.69 yards (you can round to 0.70)

on monday rodney ate 1/4th of the sandwich = 3/12

on tuesday he ate 1/3rd of the sandwich = 4/12

therefore in total he has eaten = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

thus we can say that he has eaten 7/12 of the sandwich on monday and tuesday alltogether.
