Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{20}\ \text{yards}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Renee has 1/4 yard of floral fabric.

She cuts it into 5 equal pieces.

We need to find the length of each new piece of fabric. It is equal to the total length divided by the total number of pieces. So,

[tex]l=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{4}}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{20}\ \text{yards}[/tex]

So, each new piece pf fabric is [tex]\dfrac{1}{20}\ \text{yards}[/tex].
