Answer 1

Question :–

If 36 trousers of equal sizes can be stitched with 64 meters of cloth. What is the length of the cloth required for each trouser?

Answer :–

• The cloth required $\tt = 1.78m$

Given :–

• If 36 trousers of equal sizes can be stitched with 64 meters of cloth.

To Find :–

• Length of the cloth required for each trouser.

Solution :–

Let the length of the cloth required be $\sf x.$

$\mathbb {ATQ,}$

$\implies \sf 36x = 64$

$\implies \sf x = \dfrac{\cancel{64}}{\cancel{36}}$

$\implies \sf x = \dfrac{\cancel{32}}{\cancel{18}}$

$\implies \sf x = \dfrac{16}{9}$

$\implies \sf x = 1.78$ 【approx.】

Therefore,

The cloth required $\tt = 1.78m$
