* Measure one of the sides of the square. * Divide that length by 8. * Along the bottom of the square put 7 marks x length apart. * The x length is the length received when dividing the full length of one of the sides of the square by eight. * Using a ruler, draw each of the straight lines vertically from the marks you originally drew from the top to the bottom or vice-versa.

For example:

* The length of one of the sides of your square is 8in. * Since you want 8 equal pieces, divide 8in by 8. * This will tell you that each equal part should be 1 in apart from the next part. * When finished you should have 8 equal pieces each with a length of 8 inch and a width of 1 inch.
