Answer 2

Answer:

6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : marge cuts 16 pieces of tape. each piece is 3/8 inches long.

To Find: how much tape did she use

Solution:

Marge cuts 16 pieces of tape.

Length of each piece = $\frac{3}{8}inches$

marge cuts 16 pieces of tape.

So, total length of tape used = $\frac{3}{8} \times 16$

                                                = $6$

Hence the total tape she used is 6 inches long.
