Answer:

14ft

Step-by-step explanation:

12 yard pipe equals 36ft. Divided equally 3 times gives 3 pipes at 12ft per pipe. 2 of those are divided in half, making 4 6ft pipes. 1 of the 6ft pipes is cut into 3 2ft pipes. you now have 3 pipes at 2ft, 3 pipes at 6ft and 1 pipe at 12ft. the longest 2 pieces are 12ft and 6ft making 18ft. 2 shoetest pieces equal 4ft. 18ft minus 4ft equals 14ft.
