Given: Total length of cloth
Length of cloth used
To find: Length of cloth left
Solution: To convert the length in meters to centi meters, we multiply it with 100.
Hence, total length of cloth = 345 m 25 cm = (345 × 100) + 25 cm = 34525 cm
Length of cloth used = 29 m 23 cm = (29 ×100) + 23 cm = 2923 cm
To find the amount of cloth left, we have to subtract the length of cloth used from the original length of cloth.
Remaining length of cloth = (34525 - 2923) cm
= 31602 cm
= 316 m 2 cm
Therefore, 316 m 2 cm length of cloth is left with the tailor.
