Answer: 4 4/9 yards

Explanation:

Since we are given the information that forty yards of fabric are used to make 9 school banners.

The number of yards of fabric that each banner use will be the total yards of fabric which is 40 yards divided by 9. This will be:

= 40/9

= 4 4/9 yards

Each banner will use 4 4/9 yards
