Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{32}[/tex] yard long should each pieces be.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Rupali has a piece of string i.e, of length [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] yard.

As she wants to cut string into 4 equal pieces.

Then, from the given conditions,

Divide the length of the String by 4;

[tex]\frac{1}{4}\cdot\frac{5}{8}[/tex] yard

[tex]\frac{5}{4\cdot8} =\frac{5}{32}[/tex]

Therefore, each piece should be of length , [tex]\frac{5}{32}[/tex] yard
