Question

Dana used 30 centimeters of tape to wrap 6 presents. How much tape will Dana need in all if she has to wrap 10 presents?

Answer 1

for this problem it would be best to find the unit rate, or one of something.

since we wanna find how much tape is used on 1 present we would divide, 30 by 6 which gives us 5.

5 cm is used on 1 present so 10 presents will take 50 cm of tape.

Answer; 50
