2 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Julie wants to cut 1 and a quarter yard long pieces of a 3 yard string.

1 and a quarter yard =   yards =   yards

= 1.25 yards

The total length of a piece of string = 3 yards

Julie can cut the number of pieces of 1.25 yards =

                                                                                 = 2.4 pieces

She can cut 2 pieces of 1.25 yard = 1.25 × 2 = 2.5 yard

3 yard - 2.5 yard = 0.5 yard would be leftover.
