The teacher would need 40 centimeters of tape to hang 10 student projects.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Tape used to hang projects = 36 centimeters

Number of projects hanged = 9

We will find unit rate;

9 projects = 36 centimeters

1 project = \frac{36}{9}\ centimeters

9

36

centimeters

1 project = 4 centimeters

Therefore,

Tape needed to hang 10 projects = 4*10 = 40 centimeters

The teacher would need 40 centimeters of tape to hang 10 student projects.
