He will have 4 1/2 foot pieces of rope
To calculate this, we need to divide 2 by 1/2.
To make this simpler, say you have 2 pizzas and cut each pizza in half. How much halfs will you have? You will have four halfs. Same with the rope. You will have 4G pieces of rope. I attached an image that I hope will help :)
