Aten-foot-long board is cut into three pieces. the second piece is half as long as the first. the third piece is 4 feet longer than the second. how long is the first piece?

Let's say the second piece is x ft long
The first piece is 2x ft long
The third piece is x+4 ft long
All of the pieces should add up to 10ft
x+2x+x+4=10
4x= 6
x=1.5ft
The first piece is 2x ft long=3 ft long

Ineed with this same question!
