willie cut apiece of wire that was 3/8 of the total length of the wire. he cut another piece that was 9m long. the two piece together were only half of the total length of the wire. how long was the wire before he cut it?

Sagot :

3x/8 + 9 = x/2
3x/8 + 9 = 4x/8
9 = x/8
72 = x

The wire was originally 72m long.
