Select any side. Divide its length into 8 equal sections using 7 points. From each division point, draw a line parallel to to the adjacent side across the parallelogram. The seven lines will divide the parallelogram into 8 pieces.
To cut a cube into 504 identical pieces, you would need to make 503 cuts. Each cut divides the cube into two pieces, so the first cut creates 2 pieces, the second cut creates 4 pieces, the third cut creates 8 pieces, and so on. Therefore, to reach 504 pieces, you would need to make 503 cuts.
6 to 8, depending on how you cut it.
Halves means cut into 2 equal pieces. If you cut all the apples into halves then you now have 2 pieces of apple where you used to have 1. And if you have 8 apples cut into 2 pieces then that is the same as: 8 (apples) x 2 (pieces of apple) = 16 halves of apple. Try getting 8 things and cutting them half. Paper works well. Keep the halves or two pieces together. Count all 2 pieces that came from 8 things. There shouldbe 16.
Cut a pizza into 2 using one straight cut. Stack the pieces and make a straight cut: you now have 22 = 4 pieces from 2 cuts. Stack these and make a straight cut: you now have 23 = 8 pieces from 3 cuts. Continue. After 7 cuts you can have 27 = 128 pieces. You can reduce the number of pieces to 29 if, after the fourth cut, you stack and cut only 11 pieces and thereafter cut just one each time. There are other options which give the same result.
Cut an apple into 4 equal pieces. Cut each piece of the apple in half. The 8 pieces you end up with are each one eighth of the apple.
If the vendor cut the pineapples into eights, and after selling 27 pieces he had 13 pieces left, then he sold 27 + 13 = 40 pieces in total. Since each pineapple was cut into 8 pieces, the number of pineapples cut would be 40 pieces / 8 pieces per pineapple = 5 pineapples. Therefore, the vendor cut 5 pineapples.
Typically, a pie is cut into 6 pieces but 8 is easier. A pie of firmer consistency, like custard, stands up better when cut into 8 pieces.

Depending upon exactly where the cut is made (and the shape/type of the original trapezoid), a trapezoid cut into two pieces [of equal area] can result in: 1: two trapezoids 2: a trapezoid and a parallelogram 3: a trapezoid and a [general] quadrilateral 4: a parallelogram and a triangle 5: two triangles.
12 pieces.
One horizontal cut, one vertical cut (north-south), one vertical cut (east-west). That will get you 8 pieces.
