Latha bought the least length of

clothes

Total length of clothes

2/8+3/8 +4/8=9/8meter=1 1/8 meter

Answer 2

AnswEr :

• Change this into Equivalent Fractions :

» Lata = $\large{\frac{1}{4}}$ × $\large{\frac{2}{2}}$ = $\large{\frac{2}{8}}$

» Shilpa = $\large{\frac{3}{8}}$

» Zennat = $\large{\frac{1}{2}}$ × $\large{\frac{4}{4}}$ = $\large{\frac{4}{8}}$

$\therefore$ Least Cloth was Purchased by Lata i.e. $\large{\frac{2}{8}}$

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$\implies \bold{Total \: Cloth = \frac{2}{8} + \frac{3}{8} + \frac{4}{8} }$

$\implies \bold{Total \: Cloth = \frac{(2 + 3 + 4)}{8} }$

$\implies \bold{Total \: Cloth = \huge{ \frac{9}{8} \: m}}$
