Answer:
Explanation:
In the US, the most common eraser that is sold are the regular Pink Press erasers. These, as shown in the image below, are roughly 2.2 inches long. The most commonly used paper clip size is about 1.375 inches long. Assuming that these are the items that Dave is using to measure, then we can calculate the size of the calculator which is 2 erasers long...
2.2 + 2.2 = 4.4 inches long
The calculator is roughly 4.4 inches long, we can also divide this number by the length of the paper clip to find out how many paper clips make up the calculators length
4.4 / 1.375 = 3.2 paper clips
