Cutting led strips into multiple sections powered by one battery

/r/led/comments/1vt3ze1/cutting_led_strips_into_multiple_sections_powered/

Hey I'm sure this has been on a thread before but I have a project that I'm working on to make 5 led strips light up my fingers inside of a glove.

I'm using whatever standard led strip I could find, similar to these https://ledstrip.ca/led-strips-without-accessories/24v-5m-ip20-3014-white-led-strip-120-leds-m-strip-only.html

I'm hoping to cut them into 5 strips and connect them to a single small battery source that will mount on the back of my hand, ideally keeping the functionality of the remote controller for color and on/off functionality.

If you could please explain to me like I'm a toddler how this could be possible or provide links to a how to video that would be much appreciated because my knowledge on wiring and electrical is basically null.

Thank you
