Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

S = sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon

n = number of sides of a polygon

The equation is

S = (n - 2) * 180°

Where,

S = 2,880°

S = (n - 2) * 180°

2,880° = (n - 2) * 180°

2,880° = 180°n - 360°

2,880° + 360° = 180°n

3,240° = 180°n

Divide both sides by 180°

n = 3,240° / 180°

n = 18
