Answer:

[tex]Each\ cut = 8ft\ 2in[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Length = 32ft\ 8in[/tex]

[tex]Cuts = 4[/tex]

Required

Determine the length of each cut

This is calculated by dividing the total length by the number of cuts.

So, we have:

[tex]Each\ cut = \frac{Length}{Cuts}[/tex]

[tex]Each\ cut = \frac{32ft\ 8in}{4}[/tex]

Split:

[tex]Each\ cut = \frac{32ft}{4} + \frac{8in}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Each\ cut = 8ft+ 2in[/tex]

[tex]Each\ cut = 8ft\ 2in[/tex]
