To divide 4 inches into equal parts, first determine how many parts you want to create. For example, if you want to divide it into 4 equal parts, you would simply divide 4 inches by 4, resulting in each part being 1 inch long. If you want a different number of parts, just divide 4 by that number to find the length of each part. Use a ruler to mark the divisions accurately.
