Kayla has a $14$-foot rope. She cut it into three parts. Two of the pieces are the same length and the third piece is $2$ feet long.

1. Copy Kayla's diagram above onto your paper.

2. How long were each of the two equal pieces?

   Hint:

   How long is the entire rope?
   What do the $3$ sections need to add up to?

   Help:

   If $? + ? + 2\text{ ft} = 14\text{ ft}....$
   What are the values of the missing sections?

   More Help:

   Remember, the two missing sections are equal to each other.
