Final answer:
By converting the length of one roll of tape to centimeters, dividing by the average tape usage, and then multiplying by the number of rolls in a case, it is calculated that one can get 31,680 uses from a case of 24 rolls of transparent tape.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the number of uses one can get from a case of transparent tape containing 24 rolls, where each roll has 66 meters of tape and an average of 5.0 cm is used each time, we must first convert the meters to centimeters since the average use is given in centimeters. There are 100 centimeters in a meter, so one roll has 66 meters x 100 = 6600 cm of tape.
Next, we divide the total length of tape in one roll by the average usage per use:
6600 cm ÷ 5.0 cm/use = 1320 uses per roll.
Finally, since there are 24 rolls in a case:
1320 uses per roll x 24 rolls = 31680 uses per case.
Therefore, you can get 31680 uses from a case containing 24 rolls of tape.
