Answer:


Length\ Left = 14.9m

Explanation:

Given


Length = 24.75m


Length\ Sold = 9.85m


Selling\ Price = P22.25

Required

Determine the length of cotton left.

This is calculated by subtracting the length sold from the total length of cotton.


Length\ Left = Total - Length\ Sold

Substitute values for Total length and length sold


Length\ Left = 24.75m - 9.85m


Length\ Left = 14.9m

Hence, there are 14.9 meters of cotton left.
