6 minutes 4 pieces = 3 cuts x 2 minutes each = 6 minutes
Assuming the pieces are not rearranged so that more than one piece is cut at a time, then: 5 pieces requires cuts, so each cut takes 20 minutes/4 each. 10 pieces require 9 cuts, therefore they will take 20/4 × 9 minutes = 45 minutes.
To cut a 5-foot log into 5 equal pieces, you would need to make 4 cuts to create 5 equal sections. If it takes 5 minutes to make one cut across the log, you would need a total of 4 cuts, so it would take 20 minutes to cut the 5-foot log into five equal pieces.
Eleven cuts are required to generate 12 pieces - so 11 minutes.
Each piece is 40 cm long.
