Question

11.
The length of cloth available for making frocks is 7500 m. Each frock needs 200 cm of cloth. These
frocks are then packed in a box that can contain 50 frocks only. How many such boxes will be ready to
dispatch?​

Answer 1

Answer:

750 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of cloth avaliable = 7500m

Length of cloth required for 1 frock =200cm = 0.2m

Number of frocks that can be made

= 7500 m ÷ 0.2 m

= 37500

Thus 37500 frocks can be made from 7500m of cloth.

Capacity of 1 box = 50 frocks

Number of boxes that can be dispatched = Total No. of frocks ÷ Capacity of 1 box

= 37500 ÷ 50

= 750

Therefore 750 boxes can be dispatched.
