I this it’s 2 8/10
To find the length of each piece when a 28 yard long string is cut into 10 equal pieces, we can divide the total length by the number of pieces.
To calculate it, we divide 28 by 10:
28 / 10 = 2.8 yards
Therefore, each piece is 2.8 yards long.
Expressed as a fraction, the length of each piece would be 2.8/1 yards or 28/10 yards.
