1 yard of sting, cut into 1/3 and 1/4

I have a question on this type of problem. I asked my intsructor in my 9w course but now that its over I forget what he said! (terrible note taker) Anyway, the question is from the OG 11th edition

how do you attack these type of problems? I know drawing a line and trying to cut it into 1/3's and 1/4's is the long way, Is there a short cut?
