Question

9. To stitch a shirt, 2 m 15 cm cloth is needed. Out of 40 m cloth, how many shirts can be stitched and how much cloth will remain? (Hint : convert data in cm.)​

Answer 1

1 Shirt and 185cm remaining cloth

Explanation:

2m and 15cm = 215cm

40m = 400cm

400/215=1.860465116

A shirt cant be in decimal so we remove the decimals, and take the as the answer. For the decimals, they are the remaining cloth.. to calculate the amount of remaining cloth we do:

1.860465116-1

=860465116

215*860465116=185cm
