Respuesta :

Answer:

23.38 inches of fabric was used for headband for each player.

9.43 inches of fabric was used for wristband for each player.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total fabric used on headbands = 888.44 inches

Total number of players = 36

Total number of coaches = 2

Total number of people for whom headbands were made = Number of players + Number of coaches = 36 + 2 = 38

Amount of fabric used for each one = Total fabric used for headbands divided by Total number of people

Amount of fabric used for each one = [tex]\frac{888.44}{38}=\bold{23.38\ inches}[/tex]

Similarly,

Total fabric used on wristbands = 339.48 inches

Total number of players = 36

Amount of fabric used for each one = Total fabric used for headbands divided by Total number of players

Amount of fabric used for each one = [tex]\frac{339.48}{36}=\bold{9.43\ inches}[/tex]
