Question

find the cost of 17/5 meters of cloth at $147/4 per meter

Answer 1

Cost of Cloth $147/4 for each meter.

To find the cost of 17/5 meters of the cloth, we multiply the cost per meter with the number of meters we want.

So the
$Cost = \ \frac{147}{4} * \frac{17}{5} \\ \\ = \ \frac {147 * 17} {4*5 } = \ 124.95$

Answer 2

here the cloth of cost per meter is $147/4
and the cost of 17/5 meters of cloth is
⇒(147/4)×(17/5)
=(147*17)/(4*5)
=2499/20
=124.95
hence the cost of 17/5 meters is $2499/20 or $124.95
