The first step to answering a question like this is to make sure all values have the same units. There are 1000 metres in a kilometre so to convert from km to m you need to multiply by 1000. We have 3km so that converts to 3,000m.

Thus the question is 3,000/2

The answer to this calculation is 1,5000. Thus you can cut 1,500 pieces of wire 2m in length from a 3km coil of wire.
