Mr fadzil uses 1 2/5 m of cloth to make 2 identical phone cases and a cushion cover. He used 3/5m more cloth to make the cushion cover than the 2 phone cases. what was the length of cloth used for each phone case
Total colth Used = 7/5 m
Let say Cloth used for each phone case = C/5
=> Cloth used for two phone case = 2C/5
Cloth used for cushion cover = 2C/5 + 3/5
=> Cloth used for cushion cover = (2C + 3)/5
Total Cloth Used = 2C/5 + (2C + 3)/5
= (4C + 3)/5
(4C + 3)/5 = 7/5
=> 4C + 3 = 7
=> 4C = 4
=> C = 1
Cloth used for each phone case = C/5 = 1/5 m
the length of cloth used for each phone case = 1/5 m
