Kate used 555 grams of wool to knit a sweater, a hat, and a scarf. she used 5 times fewer grams for the hat than for the sweater. she used 5 grams more for the hat than for the scarf. how many grams of wool did she use to knit each item?

Sweater =400 grams

Hat =80 grams

Scarf =75 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of wool used to make a sweater, a hat and a scarf=555 grams

Let the amount of wool used to make a sweater be = x

The amount of wool for the sweater =x/5

The amount of wool used for the scarf=x/5 -5

Total amount of wool used = x+(x/5)+(x/5-5)

x+x/5 +x/5-5=555

Multiply all through by the LCM 5

5x+x+x-25=2775

7x=2800

x=400

Sweater =400 grams

Hat=400/5=80 grams

Scarf =400/5 -5=75 grams

i believe the correct answer is b.
