Answer:

4.11 yards/uniform

Step-by-step explanation:

We aren't told that there will be any differences in the uniforms among the 16 concert and 20 symphonic band students.  No information on sizes, styles, or anything else.

In the absence of this information, we must assume all uniforms are the same.

(16 + 20) = 36 students/uniforms

148 yards of material

148 yards/36 uniforms = 4.11 yards per uniform.
