Q. Zachary's art club ordered a giant sub sandwich for a party. It was 66 feet long! When the sandwich arrived, Zachary cut it into 1616 equal pieces.\newlineHow long was each piece?\newlineWrite your answer as a proper fraction or mixed number.\newline____ feet\newline
  1. Calculate sandwich piece length: First, we need to figure out how much each piece of sandwich measures if the whole sandwich is 66 feet long and it's divided into 1616 pieces.
  2. Perform division: Perform the division to find the length of each piece.
  3. Convert decimal to fraction: Convert the decimal to a fraction to make it easier to understand. Since 0.3750.375 can be expressed as 3751000\frac{375}{1000}, we simplify this fraction.
