Respuesta :
25/1.75 is approximately 14
30/2.8 is about 10. Because the kids need BOTH ribbon and fabric, only 10 can participate because that's all the fabric available
30/2.8 is about 10. Because the kids need BOTH ribbon and fabric, only 10 can participate because that's all the fabric available
Answer:
Thus, only 10 children will be able to participate in the activity.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total quantity of Ribbon = 25 yards
Total quantity of Fabric available = 30 yards
Amount of ribbon required by a child = 1.75 yards
Amount of fabric required by a child = 2.8 yards
Ribbon is available for [tex]\frac{\text{Total quantity of ribbon}}{\text{Ribbon required for one child}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{25}{1.75}[/tex] = 14.29 ≈ 14 Children
Ribbon is available for [tex]\frac{\text{Total quantity of fabric}}{\text{Fabric required for one child}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{30}{2.8}[/tex] = 10.71 ≈ 10 Children
Thus, only 10 children will be able to participate in the activity as enough fabric is not available for 14 children to participate.
