Answer:

The length of the arc is 0.333

Explanation:

The length of the circumference is 6

A circle has 360° in total

So to know what fraction the 20° represent we have to divide it by 360°

20° / 360° = 1/18

This fraction if we multiply it by the circumference we will obtain the length of the arc

1/18 * 6 = 0.333

The length of the arc is 0.333
