The criteria given is vague. If we're talking about an existing piece of wood that we're cutting into ten pieces then it would take nine minutes, as the last piece would not require cutting! However, if we're talking about cutting ten pieces of wood off a bigger piece of wood, then it would take ten minutes.

Why are fourths bigger than tenths?

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.
