We simply divide 7/8 by 2 or multiply by 1/2.

7/8 * 1/2 = 7/16

The sections are 7/16 ft. long each. Hope this helps!

To solve this we need to divide 7/8 by 2

Dividing is equivalent to multiplying by the reciprocal value

The reciprocal of 2/1 is 1/2

7/8 x 1/2

7 x 1 = 7

8 x 2 = 16

Answer: 7/16

The length of each section is 7/16

I hope this helps!
