HELP ME PLS

There are 12 players on a basketball team. Before a game, both ankles of each player are taped. Each roll of tape will tape three ankles. Which calculation can be used to determine the number of rolls of tape needed to tape the players' ankles?​

Answer 1

Option C

Players in basket ball team=12

No. of tape used per person=2

Since,3 ankles are tapped in 1 roll.

Therefore,roll used for 1 ankle=1/3

Roll used for two ankles or 1 person=2/3.

Therefore,

Total roles used=12×2/1 ×1/3

=8
