Third, multiply 1 × 6 to get 6 and 6 × 2 to get 12.
Fourth, find the GCF of 6 and 12.
Factors of 6: 1, 2, 3, 6
Factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
The GCF is 6.
Fifth, divide the numerator by the GCF.

÷
Sixth, divide the denominator by the GCF.

Answer:
= 2 1/4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of chain Jesse needs = 10 1/4 feet
Length of chain Jesse has:
Two small pieces each measuring 2 1/8 feet
= 2 × 2 1/8 feet
= 2 × 17/8
= 34/8 feet
Third piece measuring 3 3/4 feet
Total Length of chain Jesse has = 34/8 feet + 3 3/4 feet
= 34/8 + 15/4
= 34+30/8
= 64/8
= 8 feet
Total Length of chain Jesse has = 8 feet
Length of chain Jesse needs to purchase = Length of chain Jesse needs - Total Length of chain Jesse has
= 10 1/4 feet - 8 feet
= 2 1/4 feet
Length of chain Jesse needs to purchase = 2 1/4 feet
Decreasing [-8, -4] increasing [-1, 2]
