    You are cutting wood into equally sized pieces so if you know the length of the wood and the size of the cuts ...

    That would be ...

    2/3 : 2/15 = 2/3 x 15/2 = 5 pieces

    First find a common denominator.

    2/3 and 2/15 have a common denominator of 15.

    3 goes into 15 five times.

    So 2/3 times 5/5 is equal to 10/15.

    2/15 goes into 10/15 five times.

    You can cut five 2/15 meter pieces out of a 2/3 meter piece.
