Answer:
Answer:
It depends on how many pieces are to be cut.
Literally and mathematically, two 18 foot long pieces cannot be cut from one 34 foot long wood piece.
You can cut only one 18 foot piece and the remaining would be 14 feet long.
Try out this:
34÷2= 17 foot
Thus, two 17 foot pieces, or one 18 and one 14 foot pieces.
She can cut one piece!
