Answer:

c. 28 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the proportions first.

2 + 3 + 4 = 9

Divide the length of the string by the sum of the numbers in proportion.

63/9 = 7

Multiply the quotient to each number in the proportion given.

7 × 2 = 14

7 × 3 = 21

7 × 4 = 28

Get the highest product.

Longest piece = 28 cm
