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.
Fourths are much bigger than tenths. They are so much bigger that it only takes FOUR of them to make one whole something. Tenths are smaller; it takes TEN of them to make the same whole something. Make 2 identical strawberry rhubarb pies. Cut one into FOUR equal pieces. Cut the other into TEN equal pieces. If you give out a piece from the one cut into 4 pieces, and a piece from the one cut into 10 pieces, which piece will be larger? The first pie is cut into fourths, and the second is cut into tenths.
Five times as many minutes as it takes her to cut it into two pieces. That's cutting time only, not counting rest breaks.
Well, buttercup, first you slice the cake horizontally into two equal halves. Then you stack those halves and make a vertical slice down the middle, giving you four equal quarters. Finally, you stack those quarters and make one more vertical slice down the middle, giving you eight equal pieces. Voilà, you've got yourself a perfectly sliced cake in just three cuts.
50 nickels equal 240 it takes 10 quarters to equal 240

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.
20 minutes. It only takes 4 cuts to make 5 equal-sized pieces.
If two hundred words are typed on a page it takes an average of 8 kilobytes of digital space. One gigabyte would equal about 125 million pages.

A Plank second is a unit of time used in physics and engineering to describe the response time of a physical system. It represents the time it takes for a system to undergo a change equal to the Planck constant, which is a fundamental constant in quantum mechanics. It is an extremely small unit of time, approximately 5.39 × 10^−44 seconds.
it depends how many equal pieces you cut it into. ( also, please try to keep the question in the correct areas) thanks
6 minutes 4 pieces = 3 cuts x 2 minutes each = 6 minutes
NOTE: The problem asks to cut the board into 10 equal parts, not into equal boards proportional to the original piece of wood. Case 1: CANNOT stack wood on top of each other. Assume the board 5 feet by 2 feet. If you made one horizontal cut in the center of the board 1 foot from each edge, and then made four vertical cuts at 1 foot apart, you would then have 10 equal pieces at 1' by 1' each. Time taken: 5 minutes for 5 cuts. Case 2: CAN stack wood on top of each other. The board is 5 feet by 2 feet. Cut the board long way 1 foot from the middle and the result is 2 boards 5 feet by 1 foot. Stack these two boards on top of each other. Then, cut the stack vertically one foot from the end now making 2 pieces of wood 1' by 1' and 2 pieces of wood 4' by 1'. Then, take the 2 pieces of wood 4' by 1' and stack them on top of each other. Cut vertically once in half, so you now result in 4 boards 2' by 1'. Finally, stack these 4 pieces of wood on top of each other. Cut once vertically and you now have 8 pieces of wood 1' by 1' (plus the 2 from earlier which now make 10). Time taken: 4 minutes for 4 cuts.
It takes 12 inches to equal one foot, so it takes 24 inches to equal two feet
it got into 2 pieces and the long thing that takes out smoke also falled down.
it takes you somewhere
