Maria has baked a cake for Cathy's birthday. The dimensions of the cake are inches by inches. The cake is going to be cut into squares with each piece being approximately 5.55% of the cake, which should give a total of pieces of cake with each piece having a side length of inches.
The cake is twice as long as it is wide, so that means cut half the cake (6 3/4 x 6 3/4) into 9 pieces, each with a side of 1/3 * 6 3/4 = 2 1/4 inches.
