Answer:
Let ‘x’ meters be the length of the saree that the shopkeeper told to Sushma.
Then the length of the saree that she bought home = x−12metersx−12meters.
From the given information, we can found that
The cost of half meter of that saree = Rs.220
Let’s find the cost of one meter of saree, to find the total length of saree.
Then cost of one meter of saree = Rs.220×2=Rs.440Rs.220×2=Rs.440
Total cost of saree will be equal to 440x.
The total amount that she paid for ‘x’ meter saree = Rs.2640
⇒440x=2640⇒440x=2640
Finding the total length of the saree = TotalcostCostpermeterTotalcostCostpermeter
⇒⇒
The length of saree x =
2640440=62640440=6
Therefore, the length of saree that the shopkeeper told is 6 meters.
⇒x−12=6−12=112=5.5⇒x−12=6−12=112=5.5
meters.
∴∴
The length of saree that Sushma bought home is 5.5 meters.
