For one uniform 15/4 m of cloth is needed, since we need 26 uniforms week need 26 time that much cloth. Set up and multiply the equation like so...


(15)/(4)*26

or you can write it like so...


(15)/(4) *(26)/(1)

Multiply numerator by numerator and denominator by denominator...


(15*26)/(4*1)


(390)/(4)

^^^This can be further simplified to...


(195)/(2)m

or

97.5 m

Hope this helped!
