Answer 1

What is Division method?

Division method is used to distributing a group of things into equal parts. Division is just opposite of multiplications.

For example, dividing 20 by 2 means splitting 20 into 2 equal groups of 10.

Given that;

A piece of wood that is 15 feet long is cut in half.

And, Each half is then cut into twelve congruent pieces of wood.

Now, The length of half of wood = 15 / 2 feet

Hence, We get;

The length of each of the twenty-four small pieces of wood is,

⇒ 15 / 2×12

⇒ 15 / 24 feet

Thus, The length of each of the twenty-four small pieces of wood is,

⇒ 15 / 24 feet

Answer 2
Answer:

15 divided by 2, and then divided by 12, equals 15 divided by 24, or 15/24.

Not the most elegant solution, but it gets the job done and that's all you need in math.
