Answer 2

62.8 inches

.Step-by-step explanation:

The wire consists of 14 semicircle + 4 3/4 circles. The diameter of each circle = 8 / 4 = 2 inches.Length of a semicircle = 1/2 * pi * diameter and of a 3/4 circle it is 3/4 * pi * diameter.So the perimeter of the wire= 14 * 1/2 * 3.14 * 2 + 4 * 3/4 * 3.14 * 2= 14 * 3.14 + 4 * 3/2 * 3.14= 62.8 inches.
