    Answer and step-by-step explanation:

    Making all of the stripes the same with means that we divide 15 yards by the 96 stripes:

    15/96 = 0.15625 yards per stripe

    There are 3 feet in every yard; this means that each stripe would be

    0.15625 (3) = 0.46875 foot

    There are 12 inches in every foot; this means that each stripe would be

    0.46875 (12) = 5.625 inches

    This is 5 5/8 inches per stripe.
