Answer 1

b. 0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Nasir had 2.45 inches of tape

The tape will be divided into 3 pieces.

Therefore:

`\text{Length of each piece}=2.45/3`

Now, we know that:

`\begin{gathered} (245)/(3)=81(2)/(3) \\ (2)/(3)=0.667 \end{gathered}`

Therefore:

`\begin{gathered} 2.45/3=0.81667 \\ \approx0.82\text{ }(to\text{ the nearest 100th}) \end{gathered}`

The correct choice is B.
