Answer 2

Answer:

(1) 9 boats were hired   (2) 24 piece of 4cm can be cut.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are simple Questions . Just Stick to the concept of Division.

(1) 72people hired & 8 can sit on 1 boat.

no of boats required =72/8= 9 boats

Logically 9 Boats can fit 72 people perfectly (this was the basic logic behind this question)

(2) Same logic as above

96/4=24 pieces can be from 96cm cloth
