A 4 ft wooden rod needs to be divided into pieces that are each 2/3 ft. long. how many pieces can be cut? is there any leftover wood?

6 pieces can be cut and there will be no leftover wood

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the wooden rod= 4 ft.

Length of the pieces of wood to be cut= 2/3 ft.

No. Of pieces can be cut = 4/ (2/3)

= 6 pieces

Hence the no. of pieces are not in decimal that indicates there is no leftover wood

explanation:

previous steps have made pa≅ pb ≅ st ≅ su. setting the compass width to ab allows you to make tu the same length. then δstu ≅ δpab by the sss congruence postulate, and ∠p ≅ ∠s by the reason cpctc.
