Question

Mrs. Schnuda has 3 rolls of tape.
Each roll contains 35 meters of tape.
Each box uses 1.5 meters of this tape to seal each box.
What is the total number of boxes Mrs. Schnuda can seal with the 3 rolls of tape?

Answer 1

Answer:

Mrs. Schnuda can seal 70 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

She has 3 rolls of tape, 35 meters each. We multiply to find how many meters she has in total.

3 X 35 = 105

We then divide 1.5 from 105, since that's how much she'll use for each box.

105 ÷ 1.5 = 70

70 boxes in total.
