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?
Total length of the cloth = 40 m = 40 × 100 cm = 4000 cm Cloth required to stitch one shirt = 2 m 15 cm = 2 × 100 + 15 cm = 215 cm Find out We have to determine how many shirts can be stitched and how much cloth will remain. Solution Number of shirts that can be stitched out of 4000 cm = 4000 / 215 = 18 shirts Answer Hence, 18 shirts can be stitched out of 40 m and 1m 30 cm of cloth is left out
