Question

Marian is making accessories for the soccer team. She uses 666.12 inches of fabric on headbands for 36 players and 3 coaches. She also uses 310.68 inches of fabric on wristbands for just the players. How much fabric was used on a headband and wristband for each player?

Answer 1

Answer:

27.13 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we divide 666.12 by 36 to find out how much was used for each player. This gives us about 18.50. We will say that 18.50 inches was used for each player's headbands.

To figure out the wristbands, we do the same thing just divide 310.68 by 36. This gives us 8.63 exactly. This means that 8.63 inches were used for each player's wristband.

Finally, we add 18.50+8.63 to get our final total.

This gives us 27.13, meaning that 27.13 inches were used for each player's headband and wristband.
