Respuesta :

Answer:

14 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question by using the Greatest Common Factor method

We find the factors of 56 and 98

The factors of 56 are: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56

The factors of 98 are: 1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98

Then the greatest common factor is 14.

Therefore, the greatest possible length you can cut the rope so all pieces will be the same is 14 feet
