Question

8. Out of 32 m long cloth, 24 m was used for making 8 frocks. Find the ratio of,

(a) total cloth and cloth used.

(b) remaining cloth and cloth used.

ANSWER :

Total length of the cloth  = 32 m

Length of cloth used = 24 m

Length of remaining cloth = 32 - 24 = 8 m

To be found:-

(a) Ratio of total cloth and cloth used.

(b) Ratio of remaining cloth and cloth used.

So,

(a) Ratio of total cloth and cloth used

= $\frac{32}{24}$

= $\frac{4}{3}$

= 4:3

(b) Ratio of remaining cloth and cloth used.

= $\frac{8}{24}$

= $\frac{1}{3}$

= 1:3

Hence,

Ratio of total cloth and cloth used is 4:3

and

Ratio of remaining cloth and cloth used is 1:3
