Question

Dwight is making accessories for the soccer team. He uses 855.36 inches of fabric on headbands for 30 players and 3 coaches. He also uses 263.70 inches of fabric on wristbands for just the players. How much fabric was used on a headband and wristband for each player?

Answer 1

34.71 inches

Explanation:

Materials used for headbands = 855.36 inches

Total people = 30 players + 3 coaches

= 33 people

Material used for headband per person = 855.36 inches / 33 people

= 25.92 inches

Materials used for wristband = 263.70 inches

Total people = 30 players

Materials used for wristband per person = 263.70 inches / 30 people

= 8.79 inches

Total fabrics used on headband and wristband for each player = 25.92 inches + 8.79 inches

= 34.71 inches
