Let's find how many inches each piece of cable will be, by finding how many feet are in 8 yards, then finding how many inches are in that many feet. 

Since there are 3 feet in a yard, 3 x 8 = 24. There are 24 feet in 8 yards.

Since there are 12 inches in a foot, 12 x 24 = 288. There are 288 inches in 24 feet. 

Now let's find how long each cable will be. 288/9 = 32. 

Each piece of cable will be 32 inches long. 

Hope this helped! If you have anymore questions or don't understand, please comment or DM me. :)
