Answer:

Terry requires 51 feet of materials for 6 hats and scarf sets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Materials required for each scarf set = 2 yard

Material required for each hat = 30 inches

We need to find the material required in feet for 6 hat and scarf sets.

Solution:

First we will find the material required for 1 hat and scarf set in feets.

Now we know that;

1 yard = 3 feet

2 yard = [tex]3\times 2 = 6\ feet[/tex]

Materials required for each scarf set = 6 ft

Also We know that;

12 inch = 1 foot

30 inches = Number of foots in 30 inches.

Using unitary method we get;

Number of foots in 30 inches = [tex]\frac{30}{12}=2.5\ ft[/tex]

Material required for each hat = 2.5 ft

Now Material required to make 1 hat and scarf set = [tex]6+2.5=8.5\ ft[/tex]

Now material required to make 6 hat and scarf set = [tex]8.5\times6 = 51\ ft[/tex]

Hence Terry requires 51 feet of materials for 6 hats and scarf sets.
