Divide the whole (4 5/8 feet) by the size of the pieces (5/8 foot)

x= number of 5/8 foot pieces

x= 4 5/8 feet ÷ 5/8 foot pieces

*Multiply by 5/8 reciprocal (inverse)
*Change 4 5/8 to improper fraction

x= 37/8 * 8/5
x= (37*8) / (8*5)
x= 296/40
x= 7 4/10
*Simplify fraction
x= 7 2/5 or 7.4 pieces

There are 7 2/5 five-eighth foot sized pieces.

Hope this helps! :)
