A machine uses pieces of tape to seal packages. It cuts the tape into pieces exactly 2.375 inches long. If it uses 4 pieces of tape for a package, how many packages can it seal with a roll of tape 1,900 inches long?

Respuesta :

if it uses 4 pieces of tape for a package...and each piece is 2.375 inches long, then it uses (4 * 2.375) = 9.5 inches per package.

and if u have 1900 inches of tape, 1900/9.5 = 200 packages can be sealed
