Answer: Each roll of fabric had 86.4 inches of fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each roll of fabric used in the annual school play had a length of 14.4yd / 6 rolls = 2.4 yards of fabric.

1 yard = 36 inches

so, 2.4 yards = 2.4 x 36 inches = 86.4 inches

Each roll of fabric had 86.4 inches of fabric.

Explanation: The problem states that Chau used 6 rolls of blue fabric, and the total length of fabric used was 14.4 yards. Dividing the total length of fabric by the number of rolls gives the length of each roll, which is 2.4 yards or 86.4 inches.
