Answer:
The wedding planner must have purchased 28 small lanterns and 12 large lanterns.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of small and large lanterns purchased be S and L respectively.
S + L = 40 ........ Equation 1
L = 40 - S
25S + 40L = 1180 ....... Equation 2
25S + 40(40 - S) = 1180
25S + 1600 - 40S = 1180
-15S = 1180 - 1600
-15S = -420
S = 28
L = 40 - S
L = 40 - 28
L = 12
The wedding planner must have purchased 28 small lanterns and 12 large lanterns.

Hello,
Please, see the attached files.
Thanks.
There are 36 inches in a yard, so that is the denominator being asked for. 1/4 yard = 9/36 yards 5/6 yard = 30/36 yards
So 25.6 + 16.2 + 25.6 + 36.5 + 16.2 + 37.8 = 1961.48
I would say the second statement would best describe her work, because it is giving the most detail out of those statements.
Hope this helps!
