Answer: The answer to your question is 18".

Step-by-step explanation: What you gotta do to answer this question is make it into thirds, one piece, the larger piece, will have two of these thirds, while the smaller one will only get one third ( the thirds are 18 inches long by the way).

Hope this helps, if not, comment below please!!!
