Question

Lucas is making accessories for the soccer team. He uses 883.68 inches of fabric on headbands for 46 players and 2 coaches. He also uses 433.78 inches of fabric on wristbands for just the players. How much fabric was used on a headband and wristband for each player?

Answer 1

The total fabric used for headband and wristband of a player was: 27.84 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The question will be solved step by step.

So,

Total ribbon used for headbands = 883.68 inches

Total number of people for whom headbands were made = 46 players + 2 coaches = 48 inches

so the headband for one person will use fabric:$\frac{883.68}{48}\\= 18.41\ inches$

Then

Total fabric used for wristbands = 433.78 inches

Total players = 46

$Fabri\ for\ one\ player's\ wristband = \frac{433.78}{46}\\=9.43\ inches$

Total fabric for one player = 18.41 + 9.43 = 27.84 inches

Hence,

The total fabric used for headband and wristband of a player was: 27.84 inches
