Given that the wire is 2 meters long or 200 centimeters and each 3-inch section is equivalent to 7.62 centimeters, you can determine the number of sections that can be cut from the wire by dividing the length of the wire by the length of each section.
Therefore, the number of 3-inch-long sections that can be cut from a 2-meter-long piece of wire is approximately 26.25 (200 ÷ 7.62 = 26.25). However, since you can’t cut a partial section, the actual number of sections that can be cut from the wire is 26.
