Grade 7 Add Sub Int

A 40-inch straightedge (without markings) is divided into four pieces.  The length of each piece is an integer number of inches.  These four pieces, when used in tandem, can be used to measure any integer length from 1 to 40 inches.

What are the lengths of the pieces?

Spend at least 15 minutes on this problem and be prepared to show your work tomorrow in class, even if you didn’t find the answer.  Hint: The answer is closely related to the power of 2 pattern we found in class today.
