62.4/3=20.8 is one of the 3 wires that are equal

Answer:

The best estimate of the length of each piece of wire is  20.8 inches (Approx).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the length of each pieces of wire be x.

As given

Jason has a piece of wire that is 62.4 inches long.

He cuts the wire into 3 equal pieces.

Than the equation becomes

3x = 62.4

[tex]x = \frac{62.4}{3}[/tex]

x = 20.8 inches (Approx)

Therefore the best estimate of the length of each piece of wire is  20.8 inches (Approx).
