Default Math is my nemesis. :(

Please help me with a math problem, if you can.

I have 60” of fabric to cut for a border. I had made a cutting mistake earlier and that’s what is left.

The instructions indicate that the borders should be cut from the lengthwise grain. It calls for 4 6.5”x72” pieces. Obviously I don’t have that much fabric and I can’t figure out how wide to cut the strips.

Is anyone able to help me? I just don’t know how to figure it out. Also, I can’t remember cutting on the lengthwise grain before, has anyone else done this?
