Question

8. The ratio of the dimensions of arectangular piece of cloth is 8.5its breadth is 1.25 m, find its length​

Answer 1

Answer:

2 m

Solution:

Here,

It is given that ,

The ratio of the dimensions of arectangular piece of cloth is 8:5 .

Thus, let

Length = 8x

Breadth = 5x

But,

According to the question, breadth is 1.25 m.

Thus,

=> 5x = 1.25

=> x = 1.25/5

=> x = 0.25

Thus,

Length = 8x = 8(0.25) = 2

Hence,

The length of the rectangular piece of cloth is 2 m .
