To solve the problem, we need to find the total number of ribbons needed for the students and parents.
Number of ribbons needed for the students = 419 students × 4 ribbons/student = 1676 ribbons
Number of ribbons needed for the parents = 48 ribbons
Total number of ribbons needed = Number of ribbons needed for the students + Number of ribbons needed for the parents
= 1676 ribbons + 48 ribbons
= 1724 ribbons
Therefore, Mr. Wolf needs 1724 ribbons in all.
A total of 419 students will attend field day. Mr Wolf needs 4 ribbons for each students and 48 ribbons for the parents who will be helping. How many ribbons does Mr. Wolf need in all?
