Answer 1

Answer:

9 dressed

Step-by-step explanation:

A tailor, when asked to stitch dresses for a school's annual

programme, says he would stitch 25 dresses a day and

finish the work in 20 days. If the school requests him to

finish and deliver the dresses 5 days earlier, at least how

many extra dresses would he need to stitch every day?

Stitch 25 dresses a day

finish the work in 20 days

=> Total Dressed = 25 * 20  = 500

deliver the dresses 5 days earlier,

=> Day available = 20 - 5 = 15 Days

Dresses to Stitch every Days = 500/15

= 100/3

= 33.33

= 34

extra dresses  he need to stitch every day = 34 - 25 = 9
