    The length of the arc is 7.536cm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To solve this problem we need to use the circumferenc formula of a circle:

    c = circumference

    r = radius = 6cm

    π = 3.14

    c = 2π * r

    we replace with the known values

    c = 2 * 3.14 * 6cm

    c = 37.68cm

    The length of the circumference is 37.68cm

    Now we calculate the fraction that corresponds to this arc with the rest of the circumference

    (2 pi / 5) / (2pi) = 1/5

    now we multiply the circumference by the fraction

    37.68cm * 1/5 = 7.536cm

    The length of the arc is 7.536cm
