Answer:
Divide: 2 : 1
8
= 2
1
· 8
1
= 2 · 8
1 · 1
= 16
1
= 16
Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 1
8
is 8
1
) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators.
In words - two divided by one eighth = sixteen.

here's the solution,
let the length of shorter peice = x
then the lenght of longer peice = 6x + 8
now, we know that the sum of length of peices measures 99 feet,
So,
=》x + 6x + 8 = 99
=》7x = 91
=》x = 13
shorter piece length = 13 feet
longer peice length = 13 × 6 + 8 = 78 + 8 = 86 feet
