Answer 1

$\mathtt{\huge{\underline{\red{Question\: : }}}}$

A piece of cloth is 5 m long. After washing, it shrinks by 1 / 25 of its length. What is the length of the cloth after washing ?

$\mathtt{\huge{\underline{\red{Answer\: : }}}}$

Given :

Length of the cloth = 5 m.

Shrinked Length = 1 / 25.

According to the question :

=> Length - Length × Shrinked length

=> 5 - 5 × 1 / 25

=> 5 - 1 / 5 ( LCM = 5 )

=> 25 - 1 / 5

=> 24 / 5

=> 4 4 / 5 m.
