Answer 2

Given,

Each customer requires cloths $\[ = 3\frac{1}{2}yards\]$

Total cloth $\[ = 87\frac{1}{2}yards\]$

Solution,

Calculate the number of customer made from total cloth.

$\[ = \frac{{87\frac{1}{2}yards}}{{3\frac{1}{2}yards}}\]$

$\[ = \frac{{\frac{{175}}{2}}}{{\frac{7}{2}}}\]$

$\[ = \frac{{175}}{7}\]$

$\[ = 25\]$

Hence total 25 customer made.
