Answer:

The length of tape to wrap = 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of tape used to wrap 1 present be = x

Tape length            Number of presents

   15 cm                            3

      x                                 1

     [tex]\frac{15}{x} = \frac{3}{1} \\\\x \times 3 = 1 \times 15\\\\x = \frac{15}{3} = 5 \ cm[/tex]
