carlos had a piece of tubing that was 21 2 yd long. he needed to cut it into 5 pieces of equal length. how long would each piece of tubing be?

a student solved the problem this way:

21 2 ÷5=5 2 ÷5 1

=5 2 ⋅1 5

=5 10

=1 2

each piece would be 1 2 yd long.

use a similar strategy to solve this problem.

ryan had 4 pieces of pipe that were each 11 3 yd long. he also had a piece of wood that was
