It really depends how long you make the pieces. You are better off in keeping the pieces multiples of 5 or 10 so you can maximise the amount of equal pieces

Well, isn't that just a happy little question! If you have a 2-meter long piece and you want to cut it into 5 equal pieces, you would simply divide 2 meters by 5. Each piece would be 0.4 meters long. Just remember, there are no mistakes, only happy little accidents!
2 1/2
2 / 0.2 = 10 pieces
0.4
40 cm
Oh, dude, you're really making me do math right now? Okay, fine. So, 2 meters is 200 centimeters, and if Chester cuts it into 5 equal pieces, each piece would be 40 centimeters long. There you go, Chester's got 5 pieces of ribbon, all 40 centimeters long. Happy now?
200 centimeters = 2 meters
yes. 1/2 is bigger than 1/4 because if you got 2 pizzas of the same size and cut one in 2 equal pieces and you cut the other in 4 equal pieces, the pizza with 2 equal pieces would have larger pieces than the pizza with 4 equal pieces. do you understand? i hope i helped. ☺

6 Feet or 72 inches are both equal to 2 meters.
If 2 divided by 3x it is equal to 2/3x
