Actually....I have no idea how long the missing segment (or segments) are but
I'm thinking that with 24 inches still there, that's probably enough for FM.

Amazingly, I have yet to find a website that explains FM whip antennas and the
best way to use them.

A quarter-wave length on the FM band is about 30", +/- depending on the
actual frequency. I'd aim for that.
