Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, cloth required to make 16 shirts =24m

∴  cloth required to make 1 shirt = $\frac{24}{16}$   m=1.5 m

Hence, 1.5m cloth will be needed for one shirt.

                             OR

From the question it is given that,

The 16 shirts are made out of= 24 m of cloth.

Cloth needed for making one shirt = 24/16 m of cloth
