Jaime has a bored that is 8 feet long. He cuts the board into three equal pieces. How long is each piece?

Jaime divided the board into 3 equal pieces, so we will divide the 8 ft board into 3 equal pieces. We just do 8/3 to get our answer, because it is 3 pieces that are all the same taken from the original 8 ft board.

each piece is 8/3 ft long, which simplifies to 2 2/3 ft long, which is 2 ft and 8 inches long
