Question

1 m 30cm cloth needed 10 m will remain

Answer 1

Answer:

Here, we have been provided with 25 m cloth and we have to find the total number of trousers that can be stitched and the remaining cloth if 1 m 30 cm cloth is needed to stitch one trouser.

First let us convert the given unit of length from metre to centimetre. We know that to convert the length given in metres into centimetres, we multiply the numerical value with 100. So, the conversion formula is :

⇒ 1 m = 100 cm

Therefore, using the above conversion, we get,

Cloth needed to stitch one trouser = 1 m 30 cm = 130 cm

Total cloth available = 25 m = 2500 cm

Now, to find the number of trousers that can be stitched, we have to divide 2500 cm with 130 cm. So, on dividing, we can write,

2500=130×19+30

On comparing the above relation with the division rule given by : Dividend = divisor × quotient + remainder, we get that,

Quotient = 19 and remainder = 30.

Therefore, we can say that 19 trousers can be stitched and 30 cm cloth will remain
